Fun Home

See Fun Home with the Honors Program at the Porchlight Music Theatre!

Join the Honors Program for an outing to the Prochlight Music Theatre to see Fun Home with a pre-show discussion with Prof. Gary Cestaro.

From 5:30-6:30PM, students will meet in Arts and Lettes 202 for the pre-show discussion. Tickets will be provided during this time. Then, students will head over to the Porchlight Music Theatre as a group for a 7:30 PM performance.

Tickets to the performance are limited. Please RSVP for the performance only if you are able to attend, and cancel your ticket or contact Melanie Doweiko at mdoweiko@depaul.edu to update your RSVP if your plans change so that we may offer your ticket to another student. Students who do not show without informing us in advance may become ineligible to attend future Honors Program events.

With a compassionate score and a brilliant script, Fun Home tells the story of seeing your parents through grown-up eyes.
