…to see why Bareilles is picking up a second shift at her Broadway musical ”Waitress”.
Sara Bareilles is set to rejoin the cast of her Broadway musical Waitress beginning January 16. For the first two weeks of her engagement (which will continue through February 25), she'll star opposite her friend and collaborator Jason Mraz who is currently playing Dr. Pomatter. It only takes a taste of this new "It Only Takes a Taste" music video to see why Bareilles couldn't resist sharing a little of Mraz's time onstage.
Inspired by Adrienne Shelly's 2007 motion picture, Waitress features music and lyrics by Bareilles, a book by Jessie Nelson, and direction by Diane Paulus. The production opened April 24, 2016, at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre and earned four Tony nominations.
The musical is choreographed by Lorin Latarro and designed by Scott Pask (sets), Suttirat Larlarb (costumes), Christopher Akerlind (lighting), and Jonathan Deans (sound). Nadia DiGiallonardo serves as musical director.
