Alanis Morissette Reveals New Los Angeles Residency Show, Butterfly With A Machete

Seven time Grammy Award winner Alanis Morissette has officially revealed plans for a new limited engagement titled Butterfly with a Machete. The residency will take place this November at the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles and picks up where her hugely successful sold out Las Vegas residency left off in late 2025. Fans will be able to access pre sale tickets beginning June 15, while tickets for the general public will become available on June 17, 2026. Created, performed, and written in collaboration with Morissette, the production offers something far beyond a standard live concert. Conceived as an intimate and immersive musical stage experience, the show draws entirely from her celebrated body of work. Throughout the performance, songs are interwoven with personal reflections, psychological themes, and candid storytelling as she revisits her path from Ottawa to international stardom across three decades. The piece also takes an unfiltered look at the realities of fame and the lasting effects of personal hardship. The announcement arrives during what has already been a landmark period for the influential artist, who was recently recognized by the Songwriters Hall of Fame alongside Taylor Swift. The original version of the residency in Las Vegas earned widespread praise from critics, who highlighted Morissette's emotional honesty, sharp sense of humor, and captivating theatrical presentation. The upcoming run, scheduled for November 5, 6, 10, and 11, will also make history as the first official residency staged at the YouTube Theater since the 6,000 seat venue in Inglewood opened in 2021. Presented by Live Nation, the production will examine themes that resonate with audiences on a deeply personal level, including recovery, growth, and self discovery. Morissette plans to tackle difficult subjects while also embracing moments of joy and triumph. Those interested in attending can find full ticketing details and information regarding the various pre sale opportunities, including early corporate and artist related access options, through the singer's official events directory.
