Alanis Morissette, whose wondrous Vicar St. gig remains indelibly stamped on our brains, is turning her Jagged Little Pill album into a Broadway jukebox musical.

“I look forward to taking the heart of Jagged Little Pill and expanding its story, fleshing it out into ever deeper layers of emotionality, specificity, humanity, power, physicality, spirit and fabulism,” enthuses the Canadian who’s working on the project with American Idiot composer Tom Kitt who is no relation to David’s former Fianna Fáil TD dad.
If successful in New York, the show is likely to cross the Atlantic in 2015/’16.
