Fun Home won the Tony for Best Musical last year. It is adapted from the graphic novel by Alison Bechdel. The story blends various times in Bechdel's life in a very innovative format and tells of the author's embrace of her identity as a lesbian and coming to terms with her father as a gay man. It is a poignant (though often funny) tale and serves as a worthy testament to the power of the comics format.
