Idina Menzel is set to star in a workshop presentation of the upcoming musical Jagged Little Pill, featuring the music of Alanis Morissette.

The show will have its world premiere in May 2018 at the American Repertory Theater in Massachusetts, but Idina is not expected to appear in that incarnation of the show, according to Playbill.

Idina is currently committed to star in the Off-Broadway production of the play Skintight next summer.

While Idina won’t do the out-of-town production of Jagged Little Pill, it’s still possible that she will do the musical when it hits Broadway.

Matthew Morrison was involved with the original workshops of the musical Finding Neverland, but wasn’t able to do the A.R.T. production as he was filming Glee. He later starred in the musical when it hit Broadway though.

Alanis Morissette‘s music will be the focus of a new musical, which will make its world premiere in May 2018!

The musical, titled Jagged Little Pill, has an amazing creative team behind it with Tony winner Diane Paulus (Pippin, Waitress) set to direct and Oscar winner Diablo Cody writing the book.

Tom Kitt, the composer of the musicals If/Then and Next to Normal, will arrange the orchestrations for the music.

“The team that has come together for this Jagged Little Pill musical is my musical theatre dream come true. The chemistry between all of us is crackling and I feel honored to be diving into these songs again, surrounded by all of this searing talent,” Alanis said in a statement. “Diablo and Diane are already taking these deeply personal songs that are part of my soul’s marrow to a whole other level of hope, freedom and complexity.”

It has been confirmed that “Ironic,” “You Oughta Know,” and “Hand in My Pocket” will all be part of the musical.

Jagged Little Pill will premiere at the American Repertory Theater in Cambridge, Mass. next year.

Jonathan Schwartz, the former business manager who confessed to embezzling millions of dollars from Alanis Morissette, just got sentenced to six years behind bars.

He got 72 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release. He will also need to received outpatient addiction​ treatment, regular drug testing, and mental health counseling.

According to the writers, the show will address LGBTQ discrimination and the 2016 presidential election.

“I can’t really say more than that, but things will get more political than they’ve ever been,” creator Jill Soloway said (via Variety) during the show’s Emmy For Your Consideration event on Saturday (April 22) in Los Angeles.

Star Jeffrey Tambor said, “I think one of the things I like most about what we do is that people trust us. We’re not messing around – this is a real family, and these are the lessons we’re telling.”

Also in attendance were cast members Amy Landecker, Gaby Hoffmann, Judith Light, and Kathryn Hahn, and musician Alanis Morissette.

Alanis Morissette has teamed up with her husband Mario “Souleye” Treadway for his new “Snow Angel” music video!

The song is featured on Souleye‘s upcoming album Wildman.

“It was an honor to work with my wife on this song,” Souleye told Fuse. “Not only does she inspire me as an artist, but she ceaselessly fluffs my ego. She is also hilarious so we were having a blast together.”

“I love the literal and figurative dance between the masculine and feminine�”within and without�”in this song and video,” Alanis added. “The delicate bandying of action and reaction shows the empowered and vulnerable versions of each. I adore working with Souleye having been a fan since the day I heard one of his songs for the first time.”

Alanis Morissette‘s former manager is pleading guilty to embezzling millions.

Jonathan Todd Schwartz admitted to stealing $4.8 million from the 42-year-old “Ironic” singer, and an additional $1.7 million from two other clients, according to USA Today.

He plead guilty to two felonies in Los Angeles federal court, which carry a maximum of 23 years in federal prison. Under the plea deal, he would only serve four to six years.

Alanis allegedly confronted him about the theft and he claimed to have invested the money in an illegal marijuana business, though that was apparently a lie.

She sued him, but she later dropped the lawsuit.
