Welcome to our house on Maple Avenue.
Music by Jeanine Tesori, lyrics and book by Lisa Kron, based on Alison Bechdel’s graphic novel of the same name
Malonga Casquelourd Center for the Arts, April 26 - May 12, 2024
A winner of 7 Tony Awards, the original, refreshing musical Fun Home tells the story of cartoonist Alison Bechdel as she prepares to write her first graphic memoir and the memories of her youth overwhelm her. Diving deep into her past to write about the sudden death of her father, the adult Alison conjures two other versions of herself to help her make sense of the volatile, brilliant, one-of-a-kind man she knew. With a tender score and a sharp, brilliant script, Fun Home tells the story of the universal, bittersweet experience of seeing your parents through grown-up eyes.
CONTENT NOTE: Fun Home contains profanity and discussions of sexuality and suicide.
