About this Event

Next to Normal follows Diana Goodman and her family as she manages life with Bipolar Depressive Disorder and is haunted by grief from a past loss. Through various attempts at treatment and many visits to the psychiatrist, the Goodmans work to navigate life around Diana's illness and support her while also attempting to live normal--or "next to normal"--lives. 


Next to Normal contains mental health struggles, child loss, and includes an offstage suicide attempt and self harm as well as substance abuse, mild sexual content, and vulgar language.


This production will contain flashing lights that may impact photosensitive individuals.
