WAITRESS Cast and More Set for BROADWAY SINGS SARA BAREILLES Tonight

A slew of Broadway performers are set for the next installment of the "Broadway Sings" concert series honoring Sara Bareilles. A cast of 20 Broadway stars will sing completely new arrangements of the singer-songwriter's greatest hits, including cast members from the pre-Broadway run of Bareilles' musical WAITRESS at American Repertory Theatre. The performers will be accompanied by a string orchestra playing original orchestrations, tonight, November 2, at the Highline Ballroom.

Ben Platt ("Pitch Perfect"), Barrett Wilbert Weed (Heathers), and Teal Wicks (Finding Neverland) will join the previously announced Emily Afton (Hair), Alysha Deslorieux (Hamilton), Christine Dwyer (Wicked), Drew Gehling (Jersey Boys), Alexa Green (Wicked), Laura Michelle Kelly (Finding Neverland), Aaron LaVigne (Spider Man: Turn off the Dark), Douglas Lyons (Beautiful), Addi McDaniel (The Fantasticks), Corey Mach (Godspell), Zak Resnick (Mamma Mia!), Ben Thompson (Matilda the Musical), Alysha Umphress (On the Town), Jessica Keenan Wynn (Beautiful), Natalie Weiss (Everyday Rapture) and the acappella group RANGE.

The concert will give tribute to the pop singer's iconic songs, including "Brave", "Love Song", "King of Anything", and "Gravity". The music will be orchestrated and arranged by Joshua Stephen Kartes.

Broadway Sings Sara Bareilles, produced and directed by Corey Mach (Godspell, Wicked), will celebrate the success and talent of this jazzy, soulful artist. Previous shows in the series included Adele, Michael Jackson, Beyoncé, Stevie Wonder, Amy Winehouse, Justin Timberlake, and P!NK.
