As Alison reflects on her past, she struggles to make sense of it, particularly her relationship with her father, Bruce, a closeted gay man, and the owner of the family business -- the Bechdel Funeral Home aka the “fun” home, as it’s known to young Alison and her brothers, John and Christian. As she watches her father’s self-loathing consume him, Alison recognizes her own experience of discovery, and ultimately embraces her identity. Fun Home is an unforgettable and groundbreaking musical, exploring the haunting pull of memory and the power it can alternately destroy or shape our identity.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:11pt;margin:0in;line-height:15.6933px;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:Cambria,serif"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:11pt;margin:0in;line-height:15.6933px;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><b><span style="font-family:Cambria,serif">Character Breakdown:</span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:11pt;margin:0in;line-height:15.6933px;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><b><span style="font-family:Cambria,serif"> </span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:11pt;margin:0in;line-height:15.6933px;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><i><span style="font-family:Cambria,serif">Note that the age ranges below are for the character, not the actor.
