Welcome to this episode of The Off-Book Club. Before we dive into today’s episode, we want to let you know that the discussion will touch on some deeply sensitive topics. We will be exploring themes related to prescription and recreational drug use and abuse, the heartbreaking loss of an infant, experiences with suicide attempts, struggles with mental illness, crude language, and shock therapy. We approach these subjects with the utmost care and compassion, but we understand they can be challenging for some listeners. Please take care of yourself as you listen, and remember that it’s okay to step away if you need to. If you or someone you know needs support, there are resources available, and you don’t have to go through this alone. Thank you for being with us and for your understanding. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In this world, is anything or anyone really NORMAL? At this point, all we can really hope for is a life that is somewhere NEXT to normal. That's exactly what Diana Goodman and her family are grappling with in this gripping musical we're discussing this week on the pod!   Intertwined with heartbreaking lyrics, and energetic melodies, Brady and Elle dive into this beloved contemporary musical that rocked the musical theatre world. Literally! We (specifically Elle) can barely contain ourselves and the excitement we have to share this story with you.   If you haven't heard of this one, strap in, because you're in for a wild ride. One that is anything but normal!!  xoxo, E&B
