Next To Normal
1000 Harry Byrd Highway Sterling
Taking Flight Theatre presents one of the first area community theater productions of the hit rock musical Next to Normal. The winner of the Pulitzer Prize for drama and the Tony Award for Best Original Score, the musical recounts the tale of an everyday suburban family trying to cope with the mom's bipolar condition that has her fluctuating between sanity and madness. The score by composer Tom Kitt and lyricist/book writer Brian Yorkey features 30 original songs including "Just Another Day," "You Don't Know" and "Superboy and the Invisible Girl." Next to Normal was praised in its Broadway version as "much more than a feel-good musical; it is a feel-everything musical" by the New York Times.
