FUN HOME Comes to Edmonton
Based on the best-selling graphic novel by Alison Bechdel, Fun Home is a refreshingly honest, wholly original musical about seeing your parents through grown-up eyes. When her father dies unexpectedly, graphic novelist Alison dives deep into her past to unlock the mysteries of the man whose temperament and secrets defined her family and her life as she grows to understand her own sexuality. This ground breaking musical was the winner of five 2015 Tony Awards including Best Musical and has received worldwide critical acclaim for its stunning score and moving storytelling. Revered as the first Broadway musical with a lesbian protagonist, it's a story about identity, purpose, family and love.
