Next to Normal

Next to Normal is a powerful, contemporary musical that explores one family’s struggle with mental illness, grief, and the pursuit of stability. At its center is Diana Goodman, a suburban mother navigating bipolar disorder, whose condition deeply affects her husband and teenage children. As the family confronts the impact of loss and the limits of treatment, the show delves into love, resilience, and what it truly means to be “normal.” With a soaring rock score and raw emotional honesty, Next to Normal offers a deeply moving and thought-provoking theatrical experience.
