Cast Set for NEXT TO NORMAL at Significant Productions
Performances will run from September 23 - Nov 1, 2025.
In September, Significant Productions will present Next to Normal - Music by Tom Kitt, Book & Lyrics by Brian Yorkey - as the first production of Season 10 at The Studio Theatre Tierra del Sol.
Dan is an architect; Diana rushes to pack lunches and pour cereal; their children are bright, wise-cracking teens. They may seem like a typical American family, but their lives are anything but normal - Diana has been battling bipolar disorder for 16 years. Containing a thrilling contemporary score by Tom Kitt and Brian Yorkey, Next to Normal is an emotional powerhouse of a musical about a family trying to take care of themselves and each other. Join Significant Productions as we celebrate our 10th season with this reimagining of our debut production. Whitney Morse is reprising her critically acclaimed role as Diana, who Chicago critics hailed as "rueful but free of self-pity, funny without resorting to stereotype, and all-around engaging." - Kelly Kleiman. Don't miss the show, The New York Times called "Much more than a feel-good musical; it is a feel-everything musical.
