Fun Home October 1-4, 2026 | The Westbury Theatre Presented by NUOVA Vocal Arts in partnership with The Fringe Theatre Music by Jeanine Tesori Book and Lyrics by Lisa Kron Based on the Graphic Novel by Alison Bechdel Directed by Benjamin Smith Music Directed by Simon Abbott Presented in partnership with The Fringe Theatre About The Show Cartoonist Alison Bechdel returns to the house where she grew up, searching through memory for a way to understand her brilliant, complicated and elusive father. Moving between Alison’s childhood, her university years and her adult life, Fun Home reveals a family held together by affection, secrecy and the stories its members tell themselves. What emerges is at once deeply personal and universally recognizable: a daughter’s attempt to see her parents clearly - and, in doing so, better understand herself. Winner of five Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Fun Home is a compassionate and profoundly moving theatrical memoir, alive with humour, discovery and an unforgettable contemporary score. Recommended for mature audiences.

His vignettes are so rich with detail, you can practically smell them.” -Winnipeg Free Press ★★★★★ “He's got a wickedly rapid, sometimes bitterly sharp, delivery.” -CBC ★★★★★ “Expertly written and performed” -CRITIC’S PICK, The Toronto Star ★★★★★ “Hogg is a fantastically engaging performer, sort of like if Ricky Gervais had more energy, and he weaves all his stories with brilliantly vivid descriptions and razor-sharp humour.” -Edmonton Journal ★★★★★ “Part Rik Mayall, Eric Idle, Eddie Izzard—hysterically tangential.” -Now Toronto ★★★★★ “Telling really funny stories is what Hogg does best. If you want to know how to take ordinary life and turn it into theatre, this guy is a master.” -Orlando Sentinel ★★★★★ “Jimmy Hogg is a master. He is blissfully, bracingly unafraid of transgression, which is the driving force of so much comedy. And he finesses his work with a deep understanding of the rich satisfactions of story structure and surprise.” -Colin Thomas Plain Language Description A young man hitchhikes across England to visit his girlfriend.
