Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for Best Score, Next to Normal is a powerful rock musical that shatters the illusion of the perfect American family. Beneath their suburban routine lies a raw and emotional journey through mental illness, love, and resilience. With a gripping pop/rock score, it’s a deeply moving and unforgettable theatrical experience.
