Fun Home
NOCCA 2800 Chartres Street, New Orleans, Louisiana
Cartoonist Alison Bechdel is best known for the "Bechdel test"—a work of art passes this test if two female named characters have a conversation about anything other than a man. Come learn about the girl who grew into the woman who invented this commonsense check for artistic representation of women as developed characters. The stage musical version of her memoir Fun Home (spoiler alert: not always fun) hits the stage at NOCCA's Nims Black Box Theatre. 7:30 Thursday–Saturday; 3 pm Sundays. southernrep.com.
