So tonight I went and saw Next To Normal. It is probably impossible to imagine that a musical about mental illness would be funny, moving, sad and good. And it wasn't.

It was funny, moving, sad and GREAT!!!!

Oh my goodness I loved it!
.
It totally grabbed me and worked.

I think it was a matter of people (they were really really good) in the show, and expectations (because I expected it to be not so good).
