The winner of every New York “Best Musical” award of 2015 arrives at TheatreWorks Silicon Valley this fall with "Fun Home," by Jeanine Tesori (Caroline, Or Change; Violet; Thoroughly Modern Millie) and Lisa Kron (Well, 2.5 Minute Ride). This blazingly honest memoir of graphic novelist and MacArthur Genius Award winner Alison Bechdel follows the exploration of her loving, dysfunctional upbringing. Alison, the protagonist, contends with her past and present as she relives her childhood at the family-owned funeral home. Her growing understanding of her own sexuality and her grappling with unanswerable questions about her father make for a surprising, poignant theatrical experience. Told with enormous emotion and sensitivity, "Fun Home’s" haunting yet amusing score illuminates one of the most original musicals of its time.
