The Kimmel Cultural Campus
and The Shubert Organization will present the Broadway hit Jagged Little Pill at the Academy of
Music from January 3 – 15, 2023. Inspired by the rock album of the
same name by seven-time Grammy Award winner Alanis Morissette ,
Jagged
Little Pill is part of the 2022-23 Broadway
Series.
Jagged Little Pill is a jukebox
musical featuring Alanis Morissette’s groundbreaking hit songs such as “You Oughta Know,” and “Head Over
Feet.” It interweaves the songs with the pain of
the fictional Healy family and ultimately tells their story of healing and
empowerment. The Healy’s appear to be an ideal suburban family – but when the
cracks beneath them begin to surface, they must choose between maintaining the
status quo, or facing the jarring truth about themselves, their community, and
the world around them.
Jagged Little Pill officially opened on Broadway on
December 5, 2019, at the Broadhurst Theatre after beginning previews November
3. Heidi Blickenstaff will reprise her
role from the Broadway production as Mary Jane Healy; she is joined by Lauren
Chanel as Frankie Healy, Chris Hoch as
Steve Healy and Dillon Klena as Nick Healy. The cast also includes Jade McLeod
as Jo and Allison Sheppard as Bella.
In the fall of 2020, the musical
garnered a season-leading 15 Tony Nominations – including Best Musical – and Grand
Central Publishing released a coffee table book that
followed the journey of Jagged Little Pill to Broadway, with
behind-the-scenes photos and stories from Alanis Morissette, Diablo Cody, the
cast, and more. Following the show’s big Grammy Award win in 2021, Jagged
Little Pill also won Tony Awards for Best Book of a Musical (Diablo
Cody) and Best Featured Actress in a Musical (Lauren Patten).
