Gate Theatre, Thursday 6th July - Saturday 26th August

Winner of five Tony Awards including Best Musical and Best Original Score, the Gate Theatre is proud to present the Irish Premiere of Jeanine Tesori and Lisa Kron’s Fun Home, adapted from the acclaimed graphic novel by Alison Bechdel.

After the sudden death of her father, graphic novelist Alison is forced to confront long-hidden familial secrets that come to light. Fun Home features Alison both past and present: her memories as a child playing in the family’s funeral home merge with her time as a college student coming out and finding first love, and her adult life as a successful graphic novelist.

Directed by Róisín McBrinn, Fun Home features music composed by Jeanine Tesori, with book and lyrics by Lisa Kron, and is adapted from the graphic novel by Alison Bechdel.

Viking Theatre

Threading a blurry line between humour and pathos; yearning and farce; belonging and marginalisation, The Good Crank is an exploration of the flip-flop existence of an older woman at odds with the world she has been squeezed into.
