[Sanborn, Stephen D (GE Global Research)]

"... a life that's NEXT TO NORMAL"

The Two Of  Us Productions is proud to present the regional premier of
Next To Normal, the award winning musical by Tom Kitt with book and
lyrics by Brian Yorkey.  This is the first chance for our audience in
the Hudson Valley and Capital District Region to see and enjoy this
exciting new Broadway musical drama.  

This intriguing new musical just finished a triumphant run on Broadway.
Next To Normal is widely acclaimed for the sensitive and true to life
telling of the Goodman family's struggle to have a life that is "at
least next to normal" while dealing with the after-effects of losing
their first child.  Next To Normal is being presented from April 20th to
April 29th just minutes from downtown Hudson NY., in the auditorium &
arts center of the newly renovated Hudson High School on Harry Howard
Avenue in Hudson NY.      

The story of Next to Normal breaks new ground in musical theater by
confronting its' audience with not only the impact of a terrible loss,
but also the emotional struggle of mental illness.  This award winning
musical has been lauded for its' forthright portrayal of the symptoms of
Diana's illness, its' impact on her husband and daughter, and the
sincere but only partially successful efforts of modern medicine to
achieve effective and lasting improvement.  Next To Normal is also
recognized for its' fresh and innovative use of modern & classic music
styles to carry the audience into the emotions as well as the thoughts
of the actors.  All in all a powerful musical drama that you will not
want to miss!
