PLAY: JAGGED LITTLE PILL
“Jagged Little Pill” is an exhilarating new musical inspired by the themes and raw emotions laid bare in Alanis Morrisette’s seminal 1995 album of the same name. The story centers around the Healys. They appear to be a picture-perfect suburban family - but looks can be deceiving. When the cracks beneath the surface begin to show, they must choose between maintaining the status quo or facing harsh realities about themselves and their community. Already a Broadway smash, this original story is ignited by Morissette's groundbreaking music - including such hits as "You Oughta Know," "Hand In My Pocket," and "Ironic”.
“Jagged Little Pill” delivers with heart, humor and the magic of the music of Morrissette, making this show punch in all the right places! You can see the production now at SF’s Golden Gate Theatre.
