It wasn’t just your average Monday night for Joey. Joey had rehearsal from 6:30-10:00 PM in Klinger-Neal auditorium for the rock opera that she was the lead for called “Next to Normal.” It’s a popular musical with a six person cast about a bipolar girl and her medical journey through that emotional disease and her family. Joey was joined at rehearsal by her husband and daughter in the musical. Played by Engels and Amy they were working on a certain scene where they weren’t worried about the singing, but using props in a certain way along with the music as they were watched by the director, Taylor Clemens. They were going through the prop actions during the entitles “Better then Before,” it’s was a sarcastic song in the musical. Some of the props including taking Tic-Tacs multiples times during rehearsal to act as pills. They even had to show pictures they found in the prop closet and one in particular made everybody laugh during the rehearsal of somebody in a very revealing Tarzan costume.
