ABOUT JAGGED LITTLE PILL Jagged Little Pill is an exhilarating new Broadway musical inspired by the themes and raw emotions laid bare in Morissette’s seminal album of the same name, which celebrates the 25th Anniversary of its release this June. Driven by an original tale of suburban subversion by Academy Award-winning writer Diablo Cody (Juno, Tully), the musical’s story follows The Healys, a seemingly perfect family who strives to hide the cracks beneath the surface when a troubling event shakes their community. Directed by Tony Award winner Diane Paulus (Waitress, Pippin), Jagged Little Pill opened to critical acclaim on December 5, 2019 at the Broadhurst Theatre on Broadway, receiving a “Critic’s Pick” from The New York Times, who describes the musical as “redemptive, rousing and real.” Variety hails the show as “Triumphant! Not Since Rent has a musical invested so many bravura roles with so much individual life.” Rolling Stone awards the production “Four stars! ‘Jagged Little Pill’ burns with passion. It’s essential medicine that must be swallowed and enjoyed so we can be cured. I want to see it again, and again.” For more information, visit https://jaggedlittlepill.com/.
