A cast recording of the critically-acclaimed West End production of NEXT TO NORMAL is being released, it has been announced.
The Original London Cast recording will be released next week, with a new Spotify listing showing that the album will drop on 30th May 2025, just weeks after the filmed capture of the production premiere on PBS.
The West End production starred Caissie Levy, Trevor Dion Nicholas, Jack Ofrecio, Olivier Award winner and Tony Award nominee Jamie Parker, Jack Wolfe and Olivier Award winner and BAFTA nominee Eleanor Worthington-Cox.
When the landmark musical debuted on Broadway in 2010, Ben Brantley of The New York Times called it “Brave and breathtaking. It is something much more than a feel-good musical; it is a feel-everything musical.” And Peter Marks of The Washington Post called it “a moving, blisteringly honest, and inordinately powerful new musical stocked with beautiful songs that get to the heart of the story – and simply get to the heart.”
NEXT TO NORMAL went on to win three Tony Awards, including Best Original Score, as well as the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, one of only 10 musicals in history to receive the prestigious honour.
NEXT TO NORMAL is an intimate exploration of family and illness, loss and grief. At its heart is Diana Goodman, a suburban wife and mother living with bipolar disorder and haunted by her past. Donmar Artistic Director Michael Longhurst directs this powerful rock musical.
NEXT TO NORMAL has music by Tom Kitt, with a book & lyrics by Brian Yorkey.
