My favorites are: I Am The One, Superboy & the Invisible Girl, I'm Alive (that's my favorite favorite), There's A World, I've Been, I'm Alive Reprise, I Am The One Reprise, and Light.

I really really want to see this show! I might go this summer. But I'm really bummed that Aaron won't be in it. Yesterday was his last show. :[ I loooove Aaron Tveit.; ▶ Reply to This

I'm not exactly sure what it was; music preview? benefit concert? I dunno!! but then when I found out a few months ago that it was from Next to Normal, I was like "I gotta see this!!!!!!!' lolz. But then when I found out that song was cut from the show, i was sad. lol. whatever!1 I still REALLLLYYYY want to see it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!; ▶ Reply to This

I saw it a few weekends ago and it's the first musical I have ever cried during. Rent and Spring Awakening had me sad at some points but this musical I really sat there and felt for the character and it was amazing!!; ▶ Reply to This
