Description
Every day after Fun Home rehearsal at the Public Theater, Erin Markey snuck into the show’s studio using her long beautiful hair to disguise herself as not-a-lesbian. She gathered the pages from the script--written primarily in invisible ink--that were carelessly tossed to the sprung floor, rejected from the final edit of the musical.  Upon reading them, she discovered that the show’s creators initially intended to include scenes spookily familiar to Erin--thinly veiled and hilariously creative interpretations of Erin’s own childhood struggles including humiliatingly x-rated stand-up routines performed by Erin’s Aunt Jan.  They were so compelling, Erin thought it must be a mistake on Lisa Kron’s part. Raised in a capitalist family, Erin knew to take advantage of Kron’s missteps and assembled the scenes into their own never before seen sixty minute evening at the Duplex. Directed by Elena Heyman


"Erin Markey has laser-beam eyes, a hair-raising singing voice, and an intense, almost predatory sexuality.  Markey’s uncanny self-possession goes hand in hand with perverse, non-sequitur humor that keeps her audience laughing, if unsettled."
-The New Yorker

“She defies expectations you don’t even know you have.”
-Elisabeth Vincentelli, NY Post
