Yesterday, I saw the musical Next to Normal, starring my singing teacher Shereé Marcelle, for the second time. This time, I brought my good friend Deb, who was profoundly affected by the musical and the performers.

Do you see anything that seems next to normal in my images for today?

The Daily Bitch is always next to normal.
Here’s a video about the Central Square Theatre production of Next to Normal.

Thanks to all who are here for this next-to-normal post, including YOU.
nice idea for a show, so timely, as for the alley cats association, hope the undertaker gets there first, they’d make a meal of you, cheers…hope the smile is widening, find a president day, how about that for an idea!
Great ideas!
Thank you for teaching me about our world, Ann.
Back at you, my good friend.
I love the name and premise of the play – I think we are all next to normal in some ways. what is normal, anyway?
I always love what you share, my friend.
I would love to see that musical!
You would love it, Maureen.
I consider myself somewhat next to normal, in that I generally refrain from using the F word in “polite society”, unless as a quote or something relevant. 🙂 My daughter and I refer to “polite society” as “normies,” by which we mean people who likely have never smoked, drank, or ran around, did drugs, swear as a matter of course, known or been an addict, and who consider people who actually did these things as potential besties. What I have found, however, is that “polite society” has often had more experience with these things than an outward appearance suggests, and so I have learned to try to give everyone a chance to become a friend to one degree or another. 🙂
That is next to wonderful, Barbara.
I learned that there is a whole branch of my mother’s ancestors who settled in Memphis, Tennessee and I had no idea until a distant cousin contacted me (through a genealogy database) with the info.
So interesting!
My great-great grandmother on my father’s side could recite the stories of all of Shakespeare’s plays. I believe she would have liked Next To Normal.
I believe you would have too, Chris.
