So, we did a medely of N2N songs at my school, and i swear the whole time we were singing I'm Alive, i was thinking "Boys, be more like Aaron. Please? You sound like you're in pain!" WE LOVE YOU AARON!!
I like Aaron's performance because it shows the more yearning, innocent side of Gabe as opposed to Curt Hansen's performance, where he was playing the dark sadistic side.
Both were great, but Aaron seemed more real, where as you could tell Curt was trying to play on Gabe's inconsistency.
@zoetherebel I liked Kyle Dean Massey's performance better actually (Note: I saw Aaron 2x and Kyle 3x). He played it more as the manipulator neither innocent nor dark. He looked like he was making things go his way. During Hey #2 on the line "Don't give up on me" it looks like Kyle is directing Henry to leave the ticket with Natalie. The character is written inconsistently and goes with the flow of the illness which I think makes him a great character in general no matter who is playing him
Question who is the other girl and what is her connection to him, is she like his sister or girlfriend or something in the show? I'm a new fan of N2N so I don't that much about so I was just curious!
@khscheer01 That's his sister yes. In case you haven't done so, DON'T look up the plot on Wikipedia or something. I did that before seeing the show and I still loved it, but I wish I hadn't ruined some of the plot for myself. I would say listen to "Just Another Day", "Everything Else", "Perfect For You", "I Miss The Mountains", "You Don't Know" "I Am The One", "Superboy and the Invisible Girl", "I'm Alive" and "I've Been", that gives you a sense of the plot without completely unveiling it!
OMG he so needs to be on Glee, i'm just saying he could give Finn and Jesse a run for their money with Rachael, Come on Gleek Fans let's get him on Glee!
@khscheer01 in a video somewhere on here, you see him audition for finn's part. Later on in the video you see them holding up aaron's head shot and saying they didn't want anyone too "ambercrobi and fitch"
Five people missed the like button. Must be blind I suppose. I love how he is dancing around between the two eyes representing Diana's mind. That makes me happy how he is something of a virus. It's great. Oh, and he is of course sexy as hell. That's obvious enough. Great song, choreography, lighting, set, and story. It's just great, this small piece.
@lovefooledthegirl01 iagree - everytime they air those talentshows (and i use the word talent loosely) like, idols xfactor and so on i flee to the musicals...and the real talents...
i wanna see this so bad!! but i hate that the scenery is all the same... just blue walls... not like wicked, with all the cool backgrounds... but i can only see it if they come to the panteges theatre in hollywood.. or else im screwed...
I think that one of the primary reasons that this musical is so successful is due to it being so believable. I look at Gabe and I see myself within the family (high engery, loud, etc), then I see Natalie and I think of my sister (a loser), and the mom and dad who love eachother but a broken in serval way. Interesting.
Indeed! Best show I've ever seen and I love that it's so completely original- like, I can't think of another recent musical that's not based off of a play, book, or (gag) a movie.
Just as much as he's talking about being her son I think he's talking about her disease, her mania. It's feel so alive, and yet it is destruction and decay. It is a stranger yet it knows you all too well. This is a great musical for anyone who has bipolar disorder.
You see, she developed bipolar disorder after her son died at 18 months. She imagines that the son is still alive so her therapist is trying to convince her it's time to let go but her hallucination is trying to convince her otherwise.
I know sweetie. I've seen the show. I don't think it's a bad musical. But this song is just so fucking unbelievably annoying! And then there's a reprise on the second act! It's like: okay fine, I'm not stupid, I got it. The repetition and the arrangements, it's all awful. I can't stand this part.
MRNucci76 I disagree. I think the song represents the repetition that she hears in her head when she tries to let him go. She wants to, but he won't let her and keeps repeating it over and over again.
But it's ok to have different viewpoints. As they say, 'One man's trash..."
If musicals were supposed to only sound pretty then that'd be valid but acting and intention is what'll come first. He's not gonna sound like he does on the recording. Ever!
@balletsouth No no! that's not what I ment! I just ment he's out of breath!! I know he woun't sound like the recording, they probably speng ages polishing thoes. I just ment that sometimes I can't understand what he's saying. No thumbs down!!

She's an AWFUL actress IMO. It's incredibly blatant that she has no formal acting training. She's uncharismatic, lazy, stiff, and over all just very awkward while on stage. She was given SUCH a meaty role, and completely threw it away. She's such a hot mess and it was literally unbearable at times to watch her up there. Her choices were just so weak and pathetic.
Her voice, on the other hand, is gorgeous. But still, she did NOT deserve her TONY nom at ALL, esp. over Aaron. It's such a shame.
@Jman383 I disagree. She made distinct choices with the role, which come across whenever she performs. Maybe you don't like the choices she's made, but she does portray them very well.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
No, she has no technique and she brought the entire cast down. She's just bad. Her deliveries sucked, and she was just all over the place. She needs to get some training. Seriously.
It both takes away and adds to the performance, sure his voice isn't as "pretty", but it makes Gabe seem so much crazier and show offy, which I like a lot more than boring pretty voiced gabe.
AAAAHHH STOP IT WITH THE SPOILERS!!!!!!! I've already seen the show so you didn't ruin it for me, but you people can't just keep spoiling it like that without ever writing a warning before hand! The advertising team @ N2N work very hard to keep the plot of the show secret until ppl see it, it's not fair to them!
@bway1497 Excuse me? When did I ask about the plot? If people do ask, message them...just a thought. Then again, this was 8 months ago, but still, I wasn't asking anything, but I did have the misfortune of seeing a comment on a vid like this and knowing more of the plot than I wanted.
@Wickedisnumba1 I'm sorry for the inconveience!! I thought you did ask that, i thought that when you replyed back you were the person who asked in the first place. Turns out that was lilmisblonde258. I'm really sorry about that! I didnt mean to spoil anything!
@bway1497 Aw that's okay hun, just couldn't understand what you meant. I know it's hard to keep the plot to yourself, whenever I'm talking about it with people who haven't seen the show I always have to bite my tongue ;)
Im Gutted. Today is aaron's last Day in Next to Normal :( Im So Sad He's Amazng. I would have loved to seen him in this. But i live in England -_- Hope Next to Normal Comes to the uk!
I was at the same show. I've seen it with Alice, too, and I prefer the way Alice does it. Jessica was good, but she was more theatrical about it. Alice is more real and really grabs your heart.
Sometimes I think understudies/standbys are better than the real cast. They just go out there with such power and feeling becuase its just, "Yes! I get to do it tonight!".
Seeing as that comment was two weeks ago, what'd you think? I've seen it twice and am planning a good long trip to the city so I can see it like seven more times!
Oh goodness! I have no idea how he can swing after he flies around everywhere like that, he's got to be out of breath. Not to mention he's got to be running backstage to get to his next spot in time. Like wow man. haha
He's amazing. The entire reason I'd go all the way to New York, pay outrageous Broadway ticket prices, and sit through a show I know next to nothing (hmm...ironic) about. I'd do it for Aaron. And possibly Alice. Okay, yeah, Alice too.
Aaron is a force of nature in this song. I have no idea how he can run/jump/swing like that and still sing as amazingly as he does. He's every bit as good as this in a real show too.
He is sooooo good!!!!! I want to see this show more than anything!!!!! I love how it's such a like down to earth story. I've been like totally obsessing over it and my sister is really annoyed. :)
I saw the show again a few times last weekend, and it's eight months. In "He's Not Here," the lyrics are now "he's been dead all these years." It used to be "he's been dead 16 years."
Does anyone get a sorta evil vibe from this? It just seems like he's telling them that he's there and there's nothing they can do about it. But evil is sexy, so I love this!
yes, but he represents Diana's depression, his death is essentially what triggered her issues... and because she (the mom) sees him, Natalie feels uncared for by her mom and to some extent her dad...
my goodness....i;ve never seen this preformed and only listened to it via the recording....it is so well done and powerful, and aaron is running around singing at the top of his lungs....amazing
i just recently saw this like last week. it was amazing truly. but the guy in this video didnt play gabe when i saw it. the guy i saw was even hotter if thats possible haha.
i loved this musical! i just saw it this weekend. sadly, as everyone knows, aaron wasn't there but kyle dean was still amazing. for anyone who has seen it, who's fave part was where diana first met dr. madden and he kept singing rock? i loved that part and couldn't stop laughing. for those who haven't seen it, might not get what i am saying but it was my fave part.
I must agree, that was so funny, especially Diana's reaction to it! I saw this show over two weeks ago and I still can't get it out of my head. I really hope this show runs for a while, it's truly original.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This doesn't look like a "really" good show, aside from the music being fun and Alice Ripley sounding great. Does the mental illness theme represent something bigger, like a symbol? I'd like to see the whole show. Maybe it's better in context.
I can't stop watching this... :P

Oh goodness! I have no idea how he can swing after he flies around everywhere like that, he's got to be out of breath. Not to mention he's got to be running backstage to get to his next spot in time. Like wow man. haha

He's amazing. The entire reason I'd go all the way to New York, pay outrageous Broadway ticket prices, and sit through a show I know next to nothing (hmm...ironic) about. I'd do it for Aaron. And possibly Alice. Okay, yeah, Alice too.

Aaron is a force of nature in this song. I have no idea how he can run/jump/swing like that and still sing as amazingly as he does. He's every bit as good as this in a real show too.

Every time I watch this I wonder if he took special classes or if he's just naturally good at dancing on the poles...

They changed it to eight months.
They also changed "he's been dead sixteen years" to "all these years" in "He's Not Here."

It's 8 months. Cast recording says 18 mos, but I saw it 3 times last weekend, they said 8 months. See my previous post.

I saw the show again a few times last weekend, and it's eight months. In "He's Not Here," the lyrics are now "he's been dead all these years." It used to be "he's been dead 16 years."

Does anyone get a sorta evil vibe from this? It just seems like he's telling them that he's there and there's nothing they can do about it. But evil is sexy, so I love this!

ok im confused. So does Gabe die or something?
Iamadramafreak34 2 years ago
Gabe died right after Natalie was born, but Diana pretends that he's alive.
broadwaybabyx16 2 years ago
Diana isn't pretending he's alive, she's seeing him.

didn't Gabe die BEFORE she was born?
thats why they had her?
offtobroadway 2 years ago
yes, but he represents Diana's depression, his death is essentially what triggered her issues... and because she (the mom) sees him, Natalie feels uncared for by her mom and to some extent her dad...
BroadwayFairy 2 years ago
i thiought he died when he was 18 months? that what it sounds like in how could i ever forget?.
birdsandbyrdsrock 2 years ago
she is suffering from depression and hallucinating, the doctor is treating her hallucinations like they are real so Diana doesn't freak out.

my goodness....i;ve never seen this preformed and only listened to it via the recording....it is so well done and powerful, and aaron is running around singing at the top of his lungs....amazing

AlliShea13 2 years ago
Haha Kyle Dean Massey. Better looking by a smidge, but not as good a voice for the part. Still amazing, however, don't get me wrong!

omg i know!
wicked1481 2 years ago
i loved this musical! i just saw it this weekend. sadly, as everyone knows, aaron wasn't there but kyle dean was still amazing. for anyone who has seen it, who's fave part was where diana first met dr. madden and he kept singing rock? i loved that part and couldn't stop laughing. for those who haven't seen it, might not get what i am saying but it was my fave part.
BroadwayBabeify 2 years ago 2
yea aaron went to catch me if you can in seattle. I only know that cause my best friends uncle wrote the lyrics for it and i got to go with her.
xoblossclossox 2 years ago
I must agree, that was so funny, especially Diana's reaction to it! I saw this show over two weeks ago and I still can't get it out of my head. I really hope this show runs for a while, it's truly original.

why does this sound so much like out tonight from rent
callumgriffiths1 2 years ago
I don't see the similarities with the actual song, but more with the choreography. With the half pole-dancing.
Morikins 2 years ago
yeah i'd aggree, i was about to say that. plus, in minor part, the lighting also.
Lighthouse713 2 years ago
does it? i tried to listen for resemblence but i couldn't hear it, oh well
Lighthouse713 2 years ago
Will the show's directed by Michael Greif so that could be why =D

I love the bit where he sings, "I have to go, Out tonight"...
....oh woops, I meant "I'm alive"

This comment has received too many negative votes show
This doesn't look like a "really" good show, aside from the music being fun and Alice Ripley sounding great. Does the mental illness theme represent something bigger, like a symbol? I'd like to see the whole show. Maybe it's better in context.
