Welcome to the Fun Home, and be sure to wipe your shoes at the door.

A five-time Tony-Award winning musical based on the best-selling graphic memoir by Alison Bechdel, Fun Home follows Alison as she revisits her past in a search for answers about her brilliant and troubled closeted gay father, Bruce Bechdel, in his life of mystery.

At 43, cartoonist Alison Bechdel is finally ready to process her father’s suicide. Equipped with her pen & paper, she draws through her young life in a series of vignettes: through charged encounters with her father as a young girl, through questions and revelations about her own sexuality as a young adult, and eventually–through the news of her father’s suicide close on the heels of her own lesbian coming-out… Alison realizes that she and her father were more alike than she had thought. But why is it that their stories had turned out so differently?

Fun Home invites us to explore alongside Alison how our understandings of the world differ from that of our parents. And in times of change, both within and without ourselves–what control do we have over how our stories go?
