Watch Jagged Little Pill Perform On Good Morning America
The new Broadway musical performed "You Learn" live
After garnering some rave reviews upon opening last week the brand new Broadway musical Jagged Little Pill headed to Good Morning America to perform a song from the show, "You Learn", live!
Watch them in action below!
Jagged Little Pill features music from Alanis Morisette's seminal 1995 album of the same name, and features a book by Diablo Cody, choreography by Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui and is directed by Diane Paulus.
The cast includes Elizabeth Stanley as Mary Jane, Derek Klena as Nick, Lauren Pattern as Jo, Sean Allan Krill as Steve, Celia Rose Gooding as Frankie and Kathryn Gallagher as Bella.
What is Jagged Little Pill about?
The story follows a family on the brink. Seemingly happy on the surface, each of the wealthy Healy family's members hide their own dark secret. Matriarch Mary Jane keeps her emotional trauma and relationship with her husband Steve at bay by popping pills, whilst he deals with their lack of connection and pressures of work with an addiction to porn. Their overachiever son Nick's moral compass goes awry when his best friend is accused of rape and their adopted daughter Frankie struggles with racial and identity politics whilst coming to terms with her blossoming sexuality.
As their struggles entangle, the family's blatant denial of their problems, save for the rebellious wild child Frankie who rails against them in short sorts and protest picketing, begin to mirror the denial of their community at large when it comes to rape culture, addiction and self-expression. For all its topical turmoil, Jagged Little Pill brings as much heart to proceedings. It's bold, arena-sized storytelling, nuanced characterizations and Morissette's alt-rock wisdom are immediately refreshing and make for compelling theater.
Jagged Little Pill is now playing at the Broadhurst Theater.
