The wait is over and last year's big off-Broadway hit has finally moved to the Great White Way! Fun Home, starring Michael Cerveris, Judy Kuhn and more will begin previews on March 27. Jeanine Tesori and Lisa Kron's new musical will officially open on April 19 at Circle in the Square.
Based on the graphic novel by Alison Bechdel, Fun Home charts a girl's quest to come to terms with her father's unexpected death. As she moves between past and present, Alison dives into the story of her volatile, brilliant father and relives her unique childhood at her family's funeral home.
Cerveris and Kuhn will reprise their roles of Bruce Bechdel and Helen, respectively. Other members of the off-Broadway cast to reprise their roles in the Broadway incarnation include Roberta Colindrez as Joan, Sydney Lucas as Small Alison, Beth Malone as Alison, Joel Perez as Roy and Emily Skeggs as Medium Alison. Zell Morrow and Oscar Williams will join the production as Alison's brothers John and Christian, respectively.
