NEXT TO NORMAL Norwegian Production
#25NEXT TO NORMAL Norwegian Set

I have seen the norwegian production and it is great. I still prefer the Broadway production but I was very surprised how well it functioned in norwegian. All the reviews have been great in the norwegian papers.
Some interesting stuff is that the woman playing Diana is only 35 years old, but she has one of those looks that can play both old and young. The woman playing Natalie is 29. hehe. But she plays it very well and looks like she is alot younger. the guy playing Gabe is also in his mid 30s but looks like he is 12. So the age is totally wrong for these actors but you would never know.

My first reaction when she was cast was actually "I know she can play 94(!), but I wonder if she can still play/look 16 ..."
(My conclusion was "probably, as she did this a couple of years ago.)
the guy playing Gabe is also in his mid 30s
He's 29 - and does indeed look very young.
Sting was at the opening night party.
