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'!"

    Dave Coulier is presumably available as well.

  3. Sorry, Alanis, but I prefer my Broadway musicals to have lyrics that rhyme and/or scan.

    I 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.

    You don't think they're going to go with the buzziness of Krysta Rodriguez?

  6. Possible, though she may be seen as too old.
