The upcoming Actors’ production of Next to Normal tells the story of suburban mom Diana (played by Kelly Carey), who struggles to battle her mental demons, brought about, in part, by bipolar disorder. Her husband Dan (played Larry Young) fights to help keep both her mind and his family stable, even as Diana decides to suddenly go “off meds.” Their sixteen year-old daughter Natalie (played by Maggie Nye), on the other hand, can’t seem to escape the shadow of her mysterious eighteen year-old brother (played by Kyle Los) – who has a surprise of his own.
A “brave, breathtaking musical” (The New York Times) about a family attempting to find a balance between taking care of themselves and taking care of each other, Next to Normal is sure to be a must-see event this theatrical season!
