Produced by Jessica and Jimmy Alexander, "Next to Normal" is an emotional powerhouse rock musical about a family trying to take care of themselves and each other. The story centers around Diana Goodman, a suburban mother diagnosed bipolar with delusional episodes, grappling with the effects on herself, her husband, and her two children. It won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama—an honor very few musicals have ever achieved, recognized for its tackling deeply complex themes rarely addressed so directly in musical theatre. It bravely explores mental illness, grief, trauma, and the nuances of family life with emotional honesty. The show was nominated for eleven Tony Awards and won three. Next to Normal is a profoundly human story of struggle, perseverance and hope!
Opening Night will be a Mental Health Fundraising Performance. It will also include Hors D'oeuvres and Champagne.
