Event Navigation
The Duluth Playhouse presents the Pulitzer Prize-winning musical Next to Normal, directed by Wes Drummond. The show invites audiences into the minds and hearts of the Goodmans, a suburban family struggling with the effects of mental illness.
The show stars Jen Burleigh-Bentz, who was in the Broadway production of Mamma Mia! and most recently wowed local audiences as the Witch in Duluth Playhouse’s Into the Woods. Making his Playhouse debut as Dan Goodman is Thomas Bevan, whose credits include the Broadway tour of Chicago, Radio City Music Hall’s Christmas Spectacular, and the film adaptation of The Last Five Years. The remainder of the cast includes Daylen Moore (Natalie Goodman/Diana Understudy), Jake S. Nelson (Gabe Goodman), SJ Olson (Henry) and Antony Ferguson (Dr. Madden/Dr. Fine). Bea Martin, Greyson Holste, Andy Bennett and Samuel Haggen round out the cast as understudies.
The book and lyrics are by Brian Yorkey, and the music is by Tom Kitt. Performances run March 15-31.
