NEXT TO NORMAL Pulitzer Prize Winning Musical Comes to MPA! 

This groundbreaking and three-time Tony Award-winning musical with book and lyrics by Brian Yorkey and music by Tony Kitts, comes to Metropolitan Performing Arts during Women’s History Month this March! Next to Normal* follows a typical suburban family grappling with their mother’s mental health crisis of manic depression and bipolar disorder she has been dealing with for 16 years. See what the New York Times calls “Brave, heartbreaking [and] feel everything musical!” 

“Our cast is filled with some of the most talented actors in the Vancouver/Portland area,” states Director Bryce Britton. Despite this challenging score and subject matter, Britton believes everyone involved is “doing it right.” Starring: Cora Beeman, Ben Donahoo, Derrick Gregerson, Rhea Hannon, Jonah G. Hill, Amiellia Kolosvary and Walker Laws. Directed by Bryce Britton and Musical Direction by Alex Trull.
