The Phoenix Theatre Company will stage a heartwarming story of love, hope, and second chances with "Waitress," the musical from Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles.
The show will run through Sunday, Nov. 24 in the Hormel Theatre, inside the Company, at 1825 N. Central Ave.
"Waitress" follows Jenna Hunterson, a talented pie maker trapped in a loveless and toxic marriage, who faces an unexpected pregnancy. When a local baking contest presents a glimmer of hope for a fresh start, Jenna sets out on a journey of self-discovery. With the support of her quirky friends and a dash of new romance, Jenna begins to find joy in the small things and finds the courage to pursue a better life.
“Jenna’s journey reminds us that even in the chaos of life, love is the ingredient that sweetens every story,” director Chanel Bragg shared in a press release. “By embracing both the beautiful and the messy parts of life, we grow, heal, and discover that love and hope can come from the most unlikely places."
The cast for "Waitress” includes Liam Boyd, Evan Ross Brody, Cassie Chilton, Joseph Paul Cavazos, T’Arica Crawford, Stella Quinn Craig, Chanel Edwards-Frederick, Gina Guarino, Teddy Ladley, Mike Lawler, Eddie Maldonado, Charlie McCormack, Melissa Modifer, Caleb Reese, Bonnie Beus Romney, Meggie Siegrist, and Shonn Wiley.
The Phoenix Theatre Company, originally founded as the Phoenix Players in 1920, is the oldest arts organizations in Arizona and remains one of the oldest operating arts organizations in the country.
