"Next to Normal is a marvel of construction—again and again, we see characters’ pain or hope bounce off and echo, be amplified, by other characters in the same song or in songs that seamlessly bleed into one another—and the world David Glover builds here, with a terrific, open, multi-leveled, and abstracted set designed by Sami Tamulonis, makes the most of these connections."
