One of the most beloved Broadway musicals in recent seasons makes its way to the Cape Playhouse in a new production that will make you laugh and touch your heart. This Best Musical Tony Award nominee is based on the beloved indie film by Adrienne Shelly, given transcendent new life by Grammy winning songwriter and singer (and now a sought-after Broadway star) Sarah Bareilles. Waitress is an uplifting and inspiring musical celebrating friendship, motherhood, and the magic of a well-made pie. Jenna, a waitress and expert pie maker, is stuck in a small town and a loveless marriage. Faced with an unexpected pregnancy, Jenna fears she may have to abandon the dream of opening her own pie shop… until a baking contest in a nearby county and the town’s handsome new doctor offer her a tempting recipe for happiness. Supported by her quirky crew of fellow waitresses and loyal customers, Jenna summons the secret ingredient she’s been missing all along — courage. Waitress is a feel-good sensation, cherished by critics and audiences alike. It offers a special recipe for finding happiness in unexpected places, and, like a great beach read, offers both insight and delight to make your summer night with us unforgettable.
