By: Nicole Rosky Jun. 18, 2020
As Broadway remains dark, BroadwayWorld wants to make sure that you still get your theatre fix each and every day until it's back. In our daily series Broadway Rewind, we're uncovering footage from the depths of our archives so that you can relive magical moments of Broadway past!
Today we rewind to 2015 for the arrival of Tony winning musical Fun Home. Fun Home, which featured a book and lyrics by Lisa Kron and music by Jeanine Tesori, played at the Circle in the Square Theatre for 583 performances. Based on Alison Bechdel's 2006 graphic memoir of the same name, the story concerns Bechdel's discovery of her own sexuality, her relationship with her gay father, and her attempts to unlock the mysteries surrounding his life.
Watch as we take you behind the scenes with the company as they prepare to move the show to Broadway!
