Yes, I think you're probably right that the Newman does not have much wing space (though I'm not sure). It makes up for lack of wing space (if that's correct) with depth. As I wrote below, the more I think about it, the more I can see how Fun Home might be very effectively restaged there. But it will really need restaging to work well. One of the most stunningly designed shows I've ever seen (The Skriker) was at the Newman. And that did have multiple sets. And obviously some other shows there have had lots of set changes, like Giant, but IIRC the basic setup was always there, with other units and elements brought on and off.
