NEXT TO NORMAL
January 18 - February 12, 2012
Music by Tom Kitt, book and lyrics by Brian Yorkey

Winner! 3 Tony Awards and the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for Drama

One family is about to face the music. Next to Normal is an emotional powerhouse of a musical about a family trying to take care of themselves and each other. It is about one woman's struggle with manic depression and the toll it takes on her family. Next to Normal's surging score is intense, emotional and ultimately hopeful of how the family comes to terms with their past and faces their future. A truly remarkable, moving and powerful new musical.

“Next to Normal is one of the bravest new musicals to hit mainstream a jolt of raw contemporary pain propelled by a rock ‘n’ roll pulse. It makes your heart swell.”
- Ben Brantley, New York Times

BECKY’S NEW CAR
May 9 – June 3, 2012

By Steven Dietz

South Florida Premiere

A smart, comic cruise through the perils of middle-aged longing and regret, Becky’s New Car, is a laugh-out-loud amusement park ride where the comedy spins out of control like a bumper car. In this new play, playwright Steven Dietz maps out a very funny and touching trip about “the life not taken”. Becky is married in her 40’s and working at a car dealership, when one night, by chance, she’s offered an opportunity to step into another life, and takes it. This fresh, new, delightful and devious comedy is about life, love, marriage, and the detours we make on our way to happiness.

“...that perfect blend of hilarious comedy and substantial weight, a story about choices and consequences that could believably happen to anyone.” - Broadway Hour
