ISN'T IT IRONIC? In edgier musical theatre news, Alanis Morissette is
trying to bring a musical based on Jagged Little Pill to the stage. No book-writer is attached, but Tom Kitt (arrangements for
American Idiot, and original scores for
Next To Normal and the upcoming
If/Then) will provide orchestrations/arrangements. So, who plays the edgy, gothy Alanis surrogate? (My money? Jennifer Damiano of
Next to Normal and
Spider-Man fame.)
"...and featuring Dave Coulier as 'Dave Coulier'!"
ReplyDeleteDave Coulier is presumably available as well.
ReplyDeleteSorry, Alanis, but I prefer my Broadway musicals to have lyrics that rhyme and/or scan.
ReplyDeleteI was going to put forward American Idol's Haley Reinhart, but then I remembered her worst performance was a mushy "You Oughta Know" cover. So-- let's stick with Jennifer.
ReplyDeleteYou don't think they're going to go with the buzziness of Krysta Rodriguez?
ReplyDeletePossible, though she may be seen as too old.
