Lisa Kron: 'Fun Home' Was *Not* 'De-Butchified' For The National Tour

The playwright takes to an open letter to respond to a controversy about Mature Alison's tour costume. She is not in agreement with the original post. "The producers, the creative team, and I have never stopped our guardianship of the queer, feminist, lesbian, middle-aged, art-making, truth-seeking heart of our show. I love Kate's version of Alison. I feel good about the change in her costume. You may disagree. But was this decision, or any other, ever made to 'de-butchify' the show? No way. Not on this femme's watch."
