Big News for Village Originals!
Following a successful off-Broadway run at Second Stage Theatre in March, Next to Normal is now onstage at the Arena Stage in Washington, DC through January 18, 2009.
The production has earned widespread praise and much critical attention. Check out some of these reviews:
Also, here’s a great interview in DC Theatre Scene with lyricist and book writer Brian Yorkey and composer Tom Kitt.
Most exciting of all, Entertainment Weekly has named Next to Normal one of the Top Ten Shows of 2008! Woo Hoo! Break out the bubbly!

Next to Normal was selected as one of Entertainment Weekly's ten best shows of 2008
Village Theatre’s history with the show began when it was a staged reading in 2002 (then called Feeling Electric) and a workshop in 2005. Since then, we have had a strong connection to this show, and it’s so exciting to watch it find an audience that’s ever-increasing in size and enthusiasm.
Go, Next to Normal, Go!
