Next to Normal

SecondStory Repertory
16587 NE 74th Street Redmond

A contemporary rock musical about the devastating toll that mental illness takes on a suburban family, Next to Normal has become one of Broadway's biggest and most compelling hits in recent years. This riveting show nabbed three Tony Awards in 2009, as well as the Pulitzer Prize for its heartbreaking, humorous and unflinching look at a seemingly normal modern family's struggles with the effects of bipolar disorder. Each character's journey is further punctuated by Tom Kitt's (American Idiot) powerful score. Featuring 30 original songs, Next to Normal is, in the words of The New York Times, "much more than a feel-good musical; it is a feel-everything musical." Come experience this modern classic at Redmond's SecondStory Repertory theater.
