OK Toronto. Are you ready? It is has officially arrived! And EAP is going to the opening tonight of this groundbreaking musical. I had the honour of seeing NEXT TO NORMAL two years at the Booth Theatre and I found it to be a profoundly moving experience. It is dark, funny, well written, executed and directed. We would like to thank Dancap for always being so open and generous with us here at EAP and for making us feel apart of the Toronto theatre community no matter the scale or scope of shows they produce. We applaud you Dancap.
Show Description:
From the director of Rent comes the most talked about show on Broadway, NEXT TO NORMAL, Alice Ripley, who received the 2009 Tony Award® for Best Actress in a Musical for her performance in the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award®-winning NEXT TO NORMAL, will reprise her acclaimed performance as Diana Goodman, a woman crippled by bi-polar disorder, for the final time as the musical’s 36-week multi-city North American tour comes to a close in Toronto.
NEXT TO NORMAL also features Asa Somers (Dan), Curt Hansen (Gabe), Emma Hunton (Natalie), Canada’s own Jeremy Kushnier (Dr. Madden/Dr. Fine) who starred as Tommy DeVito in the First National Tour, and first Canadian company, of Jersey Boys in Toronto, and Preston Sadleir (Henry).
With a thrilling contemporary score, NEXT TO NORMAL is an emotional powerhouse of a musical about a family trying to take care of themselves and each other. In awarding the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, the Pulitzer Board called NEXT TO NORMAL "a powerful rock musical that grapples with mental illness in a suburban family and expands the scope of subject matter for musicals."
