Review: JAGGED LITTLE PILL at Dr. Phillips Center �" A Case of Alanis More-Is-Less


Jagged Little Pill is a show with too many characters, too many concerns, and too tidy a conclusion (complete with a sitcom-ish group laugh at the end). Its heart is in the right place and its message well received, but it relies on an extraordinary confluence of extreme circumstances.
