Tom Kitt and Brian Yorkey’s spectacular, multi-Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece 'Next to Normal' arrived at the Booth Theatre in 2009, running for an astonishing 733 performances and cementing its status as a landmark of contemporary lyric theater. The raw, rock-infused psychological drama chronicles the absolute domestic collapse and emotional fractures of the Goodman clan, tracking Diana, a suburban mother who battles severe bipolar disorder and worsening hallucinations, navigating a domestic minefield of medical over-analysis, grief, and chemical therapies. Directed with precise naturalistic nuance by Michael Greif, the legendary original Broadway production starred Alice Ripley and J. Robert Spencer.
