Next To Normal

Not sure if this is common knowledge, but I was listening to “Superboy and the Invisible Girl” and was wondering why it’s not mainly a piano song, as piano is Natalie’s thing. But it’s not Natalie’s song. It starts with guitar and then goes into guitar and drums because she is singing about Gabriel. But when Natalie sings “Take a look at the invisible girl-“ she is not singing about Gabe, she is singing about herself, which is why piano, and only piano, is playing. Then when Natalie goes back into the chorus, where she sings about Gabe, the score goes back to guitar and drums.

I will never forget my absolute shock watching the birthday scene when I first watched a bootleg in 2020💀💀

[transboypatrickmurray]

Jack Wolfe as Gabe Next to Normal, London (Donmar Warehouse)

[yjcorefourenjoyer]

Hii im hoping you can help me find a post, i can’t remember where i saw it but i keep thinking about it like once a month tbh and i know it was an old post so idk if you will know it but im hoping someone will! So the whole thing was basically tim drake relating his time as robin to the musical “next to normal” and mostly specifically about the songs “superboy and the invisible girl” and “im alive”. i think i remember a bit that was saying he puts the sound track on repeat when he doesnt feel good and jason coming across him and being devastated about it?

i’m so sorry but i’m not sure if i’ve ever seen that post!

wishing you luck so that you can eventually find it 🫡

Fanposter design for the Donmar Warehouse version of "Next To Normal". I've been thinking about this design for a couple of weeks since I saw the show, as the production really stuck with me, and I'm excited to have finished it in time for the last week of the show.
