Pulitzer-Prize winning rock musical Next to Normal, with book and lyrics by Brian Yorkey and music by Tom Kitt, explores how one suburban household copes with crisis and mental illness.
Next to Normal tells the story of a mother, Diane Goodman, who struggles with bipolar disorder and the effect that her illness has on her family. This contemporary musical is an emotional powerhouse that addresses such issues as grieving a loss, ethics in modern psychiatry, and suburban life. With provocative lyrics and a thrilling score, this musical shows how far two parents will go to keep themselves sane and their family’s world intact.
Stock♦ing Productions’ Next to Normal will play a limited engagement at The Way Off Broadway Theatre May 23 – 25, 2013. Rehearsals will begin in mid-February. Stock♦ing’s production will be directed by Genevieve Williams with music direction by Jordan B. Stocksdale.
