About the Show: Inspired by Alanis Morissette’s groundbreaking album, this Tony and Grammy Award-winning musical dives into themes of identity, addiction, trauma, healing, and connection in modern America.

​

Centered around the seemingly perfect suburban Healy family, the show explores mental health, sexual assault, opioid addiction, race, gender identity, and the pressures of social media. Featuring iconic songs such as “You Oughta Know,” “Hand in My Pocket,” “Ironic,” and “Uninvited,” this powerful contemporary musical demands emotionally fearless storytelling.
