sleek metallic set, which easily switches from a kitchen to a doctor’s office to a hospital, the show is smooth and fluid, efficiently directed by Michael Greif and lingers just enough to have its impact without being overwrought. The topic of this show is an uncomfortable, awkward one that many would shy away from, but this show treats it with a straightforward approach that is forthright while still respectful.
Next to Normal hard to watch, but it’s impossible not to watch. Even if you want to turn away from the stage – possibly to wipe your eyes or hunt in your purse for a handkerchief – you have to look back as soon as possible. It is impossible not to care about these people.
