Next To Normal!

Does anyone know if they will bring this truly fabulous show to Broadway? I went this evening. It moved me and my Sister to tears. Alice Ripley and this entire cast are incredible.
I hope they move the show or extend it again.

It was the most moving rock musical since seeing Spring Awakening! I loved it.

haha yea there haven't been that many Rock musicals since SA. But I totally agree with you. I love this show. I understand the countless problems and am not looking to start another argument about it, but I really don't want its journey to end here!

So it's the better of the two rock musicals that have come out since Spring Awakening? What an esteemed category.

Thoughts of a quick transfer seemed to disappear after the reviews came out...hopefully that's not the end of this show's journey.

I got tickets again for Saturday. They seem to be selling out so if folks still want to catch it this week, get tickets as soon as you read this.

Given that they've already begun the tweaking process, I think they are fully intending to attempt a transfer. The last time I specifically spoke with anyone about it, the word was that they were thinking an out of town thing and moving it in next season.

If there are not plans to go for a transfer, I don't see why they would have implemented a major change a week before it closes off-Broadway.

maybe ~ Info on it is conflicting. No one seems to know for sure.

Wow...it's gonna be a BWW party Sunday. I'm in row G (wasn't sure how soon it would sell out once the extension was announced so I got it online rather than waiting until after school where I could have gone in.). Still...just being there will be amazing. Can't wait...and yet so sad!!!!
