REVIEW: Waitress is baked into a beautiful pie ATTPAC’s Broadway Series opened Waitress on Tuesday at the Winspear Opera House to a nearly packed house.
The energy was buzzing throughout the venue for this production with music by Sara Bareilles. For opening night, the cast met that energy with a dynamic show that hit on all the emotions.
Waitress centers on Jenna (Jisel Soleil Ayon) who’s superpower is creating and baking incredible and unique pies. They are also her way of handling life.
She works alongside the obsessive-compulsive Dawn (Gabriella Marzetta) and the strong-willed Becky (Dominique Kent) who are also her support system.
