Manage episode 448824156 series 3575733
On the day of its opening night, Brian Kitson sat down with the director of the Ridgedale Players' production of Fun Home, Scott Steiger. Steiger talks about the challenges of bringing this musical based on Allison Bechdel's work to life on stage, what his approach to directing is and how it may change depending on what level of actor he's working with, what makes this show unique and the perfect show for Ridgedale Players, and what's coming next at this theater that is a staple in the Metro Detroit community. Enjoy!
This musical is real and raw in its presentation of sexuality, family relations, and mental illness. While many of these topics weren't openly discussed when Bechdel was growing up, Fun Home brings them to a modern audience and presents them in a new way.
