In Fun Home, a groundbreaking and deeply personal musical, Alison Bechdel revisits her past to make sense of her father’s secrets and her own journey to self-discovery. Through a haunting and heartwarming score, the story unfolds in a series of powerful vignettes—flashing between childhood innocence, college revelations, and the present-day artist searching for truth. With humor, heartbreak, and a soundtrack that lingers long after the curtain falls, Fun Home invites you into the family-run funeral home where Alison grew up—where the answers aren’t always easy, but the journey is unforgettable.
