Alanis Morissette to Star in New London Show

Alanis Morissette is set to take to the London stage in a new theatre
production. The Canadian rocker is set to star as Sunny Jacobs in a production of The Exonerated- about six people sent to death row for crimes they didn't commit. She said: "I feel very aligned with my character and uplifted by her courage and faith. Her ability to remain in a place of love is a guiding force for me." Morissette - who famously shared a kiss with Sarah Jessica Parker in Sex and the City - has previously also starred in The Vagina Monologues and played God in the Kevin Smith's film Dogma.

Fabulous...I have always wanted to see her on the stage ever since I saw DeLovely.

I wonder if this is a musical or not.

I would think so also.

Shes only in it form May 23-28th

Its a terrific play that had a host of A list actors appear in the US productions. Also London has not been short changed either for casting

Past performers (London) include: Larry Block, David Brown Jr, Stockard Channing, Charles Dance, Martin Freeman, Rupert Graves, Nigel Harman, Sunny Jacobs, Geraldine James, Bruce Kronenberg, Delroy Lindo, Gina McKee, Matthew Marsh, Curtis McClarin, Kate Mulgrew, Steve Pemberton, James Purefoy, Suzi Quatro, Aiden Quinn, Heather Simms, Catherine Tate

The most devestating evening I have ever spent in the theatre. It ran at the Edinburgh Festival last year. The effect it had on the audience was so visceral. I defy anyone to support the barbaric practice of capital punishment after seeing this play. Its all based on real life accounts and plays a straight bat.

Sounds great. Wish a regional theater around here would take it on.

when and where in Fort Lauderdale did The Exonerated play?

I want to say November of 04 and it was at The Broward Center for the Performing Arts...
