Come audition for our first of 3 incredible musicals in 2026! Next To Normal will be performed June 11-21st, (with a possible 3rd weekend extension)Directed by GhostLight's GM/Artistic Director Paul Mow, Assistant Director Wes Shenker and Music Director Lane Alsup. Please prepare 1-2 contrasting 32 bar excerpts of musical theatre song. An accompanist will be provided. Signups to be posted soon. (Double-casting may be possible throughout the 6 person cast.)
"It’s easy to see why Next to Normal struck a chord with the Broadway audience. Tuneful and darkly humorous, it touches a third rail of mental health discourse and refuses to let go. It’s the kind of show that delights longtime fans of musical theater while expanding the range of subjects that often-lighthearted form can address. It also requires acrobatic vocal performances from its six-person cast."
