Every once in a while a Broadway musical comes along that surprises, moves and excites audiences in ways only a truly landmark musical can. The “groundbreaking” “life-affirming” and “exquisite” new musical FUN HOME was the event of the Broadway season, receiving raves from critics and audiences alike and making history along the way.
Based on Alison Bechdel’s best-selling graphic memoir, FUN HOME features music by Jeanine Tesori, book and lyrics by Lisa Kron and direction by Sam Gold, whose work on this production earned them the Tony Awards for Best Score, Best Book and Best Direction. FUN HOME introduces us to Alison at three different ages, revealing memories of her uniquely dysfunctional family—her mother, brothers and volatile, brilliant, enigmatic father—that connect with her in surprising new ways.
One of the most groundbreaking productions ever to hit Broadway, FUN HOME is the winner of FIVE Tony Awards Including BEST MUSICAL.
While FUN HOME is accessible to many ages, it’s not recommended for young children due to adult themes.
