Fun Home solo?

On a trip with my brother in law & his niece. He wants to see Waitress tomorrow. I, Fun Home. Thinking about splitting up for the matinee. The fact that it's at the CITS with 90% of the OBC seems too good to pass up. Anyone who's seen both care to weigh in or add something else I need to see? So far we've done Mormon & Bright Star and will be seeing Beautiful & The Color Purple over the rest of the weekend. Is Waitress worth passing on?

If you can only choose one, I'd go with Fun Home! Its beautiful.

Fun Home really tugged at my heart strings because of the subject matter, but the way Jessie Mueller throws herself into her role in Waitress is just in my opinion not to be missed. I'm not sure if you are near somewhere that shows tour, but Fun Home will be touring.

Yes, Fun Home will be touring, but I don't see a world in which Waitress does not also hit the road in the near future.



The thing to keep in mind is that Waitress will tour and be pretty much the same as what it looks like on Broadway in terms of staging and design. The tour of Fun Home is going to be very different from what is currently playing at Circle in the Square (not necessarily better or worse, but very different). If the possibility of being able to see a tour of either is at all a factor in the decision I would definitely say Fun Home then, since this staging is not likely to be repeated any time soon.
