Winner, 2009 Tony Awards, Winner, 2010 Pulitzer Prize, Winner, Critics Choice for "One of the Year's Ten Best Shows"
“The best musical of the season — by a mile. It’ll pin you to your seat.” – Rolling Stone
“It is much more than a feel-good musical. It is a feel-everything musical.” – The New York Times
The most talked about new show on Broadway is a “brave and breathtaking musical” according to The New York Times and a show that “pushes Broadway in new directions” says Rolling Stone. With a thrilling contemporary rock score, Next to Normal is an emotional powerhouse about a family trying to take care of themselves and each other in the midst of one family member's mental illness.
Winner of three 2009 Tony Awards including Best Musical Score and the 2010 Pulitzer Prize, Next to Normal was also chosen as “one of the year’s ten best shows” by critics around the country, including The Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post, Rolling Stone and The New York Times.
