Get ready for a spectacular cinematic treat as the enchanting filmed adaptation of “Waitress” graces the big screen at the 2023 Tribeca Festival in New York City, taking place from June 7th to 18th.
Captured in the captivating ambiance of the historic Ethel Barrymore Theatre in 2021, the production shone brightly post-pandemic under the guiding hand of Sara Bareilles, the multi-talented creator of the hit musical. Bareilles herself mesmerized audiences as the lead character Jenna, supported by a stellar cast including Drew Gehling as Dr. Pomatter, Charity Angél Dawson as Becky, Caitlin Houlahan as Dawn, Christopher Fitzgerald as Ogie, Eric Anderson as Cal, Dakin Matthews as Joe, and Joe Tippett as Earl.
Originally, plans were in place to film the dazzling West End production in 2020 with Bareilles at the helm, but the pandemic forced a change of plans. Nevertheless, the creative team prevailed, and the result is nothing short of magical.
Boasting a book by Jessie Nelson, direction from Tony Award-winner Diane Paulus, and exhilarating choreography by Lorin Latarro, “Waitress” invites audiences to experience the poignant journey of a young diner waitress yearning to break free from her mundane existence and create a life truly her own. Inspired by the beloved film of the same name, this heartwarming story is not to be missed.
