You oughta know that your favorite ‘90s woman rocker is headed for the theatre.

Alanis Morissette, whose Grammy-winning album “Jagged Little Pill” you’ve probably wailed along to with a hairbrush mic, will have her album adapted into a musical next spring.

Diane Paulus ― of “Hair” and “Finding Neverland” fame ― will head up the production, and “Juno” writer Diablo Cody is writing the book.

According to a press release, Cody and Morissette are basing the musical’s story on “a modern and multi-generational family and their complex dynamics, touching on issues of gender identity and race.”

“The chemistry between all of us is crackling and I feel honored to be diving into these songs again,” Morissette said in a statement.

And yes, hits like “Ironic” and “Hand in My Pocket” will be worked into the musical, which will premiere May 2018 in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
