I spoke with Jocelyn Brown who acting and belting out Alanis Morissette tunes in Chance Theater's version of "Jagged Little Pill" for its Anaheim, CA run at Chance Theater from July 10, 2026 — August 9, 2026. Click the play button to listen in.
From the Chance Site: Jagged Little Pill reimagines Alanis Morissette’s iconic 1995 album into a contemporary musical that delves into the complexities of a seemingly perfect suburban family. Set in the affluent town of Connecticut, the story centers on Mary Jane Healy, a mother grappling with past traumas and addiction, while balancing her family as they confront issues including sexual assault, gender identity, and societal expectations. Through powerful performances and Morissette’s evocative music that defined a generation, this award winning musical weaves together themes of family, healing, and empowerment. It’s a fearless, exhilarating celebration of hope, self-discovery, and the messy beauty of being human.
Directed by Matthew McCray, Musical Direction by Lex Leigh, 2026 performances take place July 10, 2026 — August 9, 2026.
