Jagged Little Pill / O.B.C. - Jagged Little Pill (Original Broadway Cast)   - VINYL LP

Double vinyl LP pressing. Jagged little pill is an exhilarating musical inspired by the themes and raw emotions laid bare in Alanis Morissette's seminal album of the same name. The Healys appear to be a picture-perfect suburban family - but looks can be deceiving. When the cracks beneath the surface begin to show, they must choose between maintaining the status quo or facing harsh truths about themselves, their community, and the world around them. InchUrgent, wildly entertaining, and wickedly funny in all the right placesInch (The Boston Globe), this original story is ignited by Morissette's groundbreaking music - including such hits as InchYou Oughta Know,Inch InchHead Over Feet,Inch InchHand In My Pocket,Inch and InchIronicInch - plus brand-new songs written for the show. Hailed by The New York Times as Incha big-hearted musical that breaks the mold,Inch Jagged Little Pill Inchtakes on the good work we are always asking new musicals to do the work of singing about real things.Inch
