Overview

Tony Award®-nominated musical Waitress offers a unique recipe for finding happiness in unexpected places. Jenna, an adept pie maker and waitress at the local diner, finds herself trapped in a small town and an unfulfilling marriage. Faced with an unplanned pregnancy, Jenna worries that her dream of opening her own pie shop may slip away. However, a baking contest in a nearby county and the arrival of the town’s charming new doctor provides her with a tantalizing recipe for happiness. Featuring music and lyrics by Grammy Award®- winner Sara Bareilles, this regional premiere of Waitress is a hit musical that’s “a little slice of heaven” (Entertainment Weekly).
