Presented by Joshua Robson Productions in association with Hayes Theatre Co

Music by Tom Kitt
Book and Lyrics by Brian Yorkey

The award-winning rock musical.

Experience the Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning musical that has captivated audiences around the world. Featuring an electrifying contemporary score by Tom Kitt and Brian Yorkey, this powerful and deeply moving musical explores the bonds that hold us together, the resilience of the human spirit, and the hope that can be found even in life’s most challenging moments.

From their quiet street, the Goodmans appear to be your conventional nuclear family: Diana is the devoted suburban mother supported by Dan, the supportive, yet exhausted father and their children, Gabe and Natalie, who are well into the swings of teenagerhood. But the Goodmans’ reality is anything but normal.  

A modern musical masterpiece that explores the bonds that unite us through life’s most demanding trials, Next to Normal is a testament to hope and the imperfect beauty of family. A new, heartfelt reimagining of the Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece comes to Hayes from the team behind The Addams Family, Little Women, and In the Heights.
