Jordan Catalano said: "They did a great job updating this production so it doesn’t look like its from aaaaalllllllllll the way back in 2008. Theytook out the scene where Diana goes to the hospital in the horse and buggy and Gabe is no longer a Victorian era ghost wearing chains. Natalie is a high school student now instead of working in the factory and Dr. Madden is now a real doctor who doesn’t try to cure Diana by using a vibrator."

BroadwayNYC2 said: "It’s a great production of a highly overrated show (I get I’m the minority), but it’s a rare example of Act II being incredibly superior to the first. Next To Normal is a frustrating endeavor for me because no matter how hard a director tries, it’s a 2000s period piece. Until a show rectifies that, I’m not sure I need to see it again."
Huh?

Spoilers:
I think it’s pretty clear the huge corporation hired the therapist. He even mentions the minimal information they gave on her. Anyway, in this situation no company would allow the employee in question to pick the therapist themselves.
It wasn’t until the second time I saw the show that I realized there is a very specific (and startling) moment where the idea is planted in her head that she could know who this man is.

Me too, Quibs. Click Here To Toggle Spoiler Content When I saw it downtown, I thought she had come to the therapy session with the gun and the intention to kill him because she thought he was the guy from the videos. Or she realized when she got there that it was him and pulled the gun out. I thought that was pretty unrealistic too, what were the odds

Click Here To Toggle Spoiler Content Am I the only one who think he’s not guilty? I thought that downtown and having seen it on Broadway I feel even stronger about it. In order for him to be the man she is accusing him of being, him being her therapist would be a one in a six billion chance. It’s way too unrealistic.

Report: The Phantom of the Opera May Be Readying an Off-Broadway Return

Jarethan said: "This seems wrong to me. The longer it is off-Broadway, the longer the delay is for a next Broadway production. I would imagine that much of the spectacle would be gone / diluted, and they are not going to have a lush orchestra. Mark me skeptical. It just doesn’t seem like the right strategic decision."
It’s a musical, not a religion.

Pre-Existing Condition by Marin Ireland

2024, 05:40:30 PM
I loved this space and I liked this play. I saw Tatiana and she held her script. It's a very demanding role. I'm not totally sure why they are having such a rotation of actresses in the role...maybe to show how universal the role is supposed to be? Or maybe because Marin Ireland wanted to showcase all her talented friends. I can't help but wonder what the show would be like with someone off book in the role (Tatiana was very good). I also felt totally conflicted about which actres
