“A little slice of heaven”
– Entertainment Weekly
Jenna is a small town waitress with a passion for baking pies. When she becomes pregnant by her no-good husband and falls for her quirky new OB/GYN, Jenna realizes she must address her life, and find her true self in a world that has been passing her by.
When a pie-making contest is announced in a nearby county, Jenna sees the opportunity for a fresh start. But forging a path isn’t as simple as mixing the ingredients for one of her signature pies. With the support of her fellow waitresses, and one crusty regular, she finds the strength to pursue a long-abandoned dream. Hilarious and heartfelt, with gorgeous original music and lyrics by Grammy Award-winning Sara Bareilles, this Broadway musical serves up more than delicious pie.
