Fun Home

Music by Jeanine Tesori
Book and Lyrics by Lisa Kron
Based on the Graphic Novel by Alison Bechdel
Directed by Terrence J. Nolen

On the F. Otto Haas Stage
MAY 17 – JUNE 17, 2018

Hailed as one of Broadway's most original musicals and winner of 5 Tony Awards, Fun Home is a groundbreaking story inspired by Alison Bechdel's best-selling graphic memoir. After the sudden death of her father, Alison sets out to unravel the many mysteries of her childhood growing up at the family funeral home in Central Pennsylvania. Moving between past and present, Alison relives her life through a series of memories and conversations - from her coming out to her moving journey to acceptance. Featuring a gorgeous score by Jeanine Tesori (Caroline, or Change) and brilliant book and lyrics by Lisa Kron (2.5 Minute Ride), Fun Home is a refreshingly honest, moving new musical about seeing your parents through grown-up eyes.
