Fun Home
Introspective and refreshingly honest, this hit musical is hailed as one of Broadway’s most original. Through the lens of three pivotal stages in Alison’s life, Bechdel’s witty and wistful illustrated autobiography comes to life in this moving journey to acceptance, directed by Addie Gorlin-Han. Looking back on her 1970s childhood in the family-owned funeral home and her complex relationship with her father, Alison discovers they had more in common than she ever knew.

Themes
- In this true story, we see Alison at three different ages of her life. We see the differences (and similarities) in Alison’s perspectives at each age. Looking at your own life, what is one idea or perspective of yours that has changed since you were younger?
- Alison’s father, for reasons we may not know, makes deeply harmful choices that eventually affect the whole family. As a result, each member of the family has to decide if forgiveness is possible. How do we address harm and healing with those we love most?
