Next to Normal, with music by Tom Kitt and lyrics by Brian Yorkey, is making its west coast premiere at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles. With a thrilling contemporary score, 'Next to Normal' is an emotional powerhouse of a musical about a family trying to take care of themselves and each other. The Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning musical features original Broadway star Alice Ripley, who won the Tony for her performance. Next to Normal also features Asa Somers (Dan), Curt Hansen (Gabe), Emma Hunton (Natalie), Jeremy Kushnier (Dr. Madden/Dr. Fine) and Preston Sadleir (Henry).
National tour of Tony Award-winning musical about the emergence of teenage sexuality may not fully satisfy an older audience but unquestionably sings to today's younger generation by injecting a contemporary pop/rock sensibility into a repressed Victorian Era story
To create a touring production of a Broadway hit, the production team usually has to scale down large sets, trim the corners and sometimes cut down the cast. With the ?Spring Awakening? touring production, it was just the opposite: the show would have to be made bigger. Gone would be the cozy feel of The Eugene O?Neill Theater, replaced with larger two-and-three tiered touring houses with bigger stages, and as a result the set would have to be expanded, creating more of an imposing feel than the original classroom did. But, more than any logistical problems, the question became this: Would ?Spring Awakening? even be viable as a touring show?
The touring cast of the 8 Tony Award winning Broadway smash Spring Awakening (currently performing at the Ahmanson Theater in Los Angeles) dropped into the Upright Cabaret at Mark's Restaurant on Sunday, November 23rd for a special night of music, nostalgia, and charity to benefit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.
