Meet The Characters: Fun Home Edition⚠️ First Meet The Characters: Fun Home Edition⚠️ First up is our leading player(s), Alison Bechdel. The character of Alison Bechdel is portrayed by three actors, so it only seemed fair to break this post down into all three roles. First up is 43-year-old "Alison", our show’s narrator, who reviews her family and early life. Next is 19-year-old “Medium Alison" who is an Oberlin college student discovering her sexuality, and navigating her first love. Last of the three, is 10-year-old "Small Alison" who is a child struggling against her father's expectations. “Fun Home” makes Broadway history in giving a voice to the first lesbian lead character in a musical! 🏳️‍🌈 This show is groundbreaking in so many ways, and we can’t wait to bring it to the SLOC stage. Come be a part of it! Which Alison will YOU be coming out for?! 🔑🏳️‍🌈⚰️⭐️ Auditions: Nov 29 & 30 @ 7pm (630pm sign-in)
