The acclaimed Broadway Sings concert series is making its long-awaited in-person return celebrating Lady Gaga’s epic 2020 album Chromatica. On September 27 at 8pm, a bombshell cast of stars will belt out completely new arrangements of the hits of the award-winning album, accompanied by a 14-piece orchestra at the beautiful Sony Hall.

The diner is “Opening Up” with a full cast for the return of the national tour of WAITRESS, the hilarious hit Broadway musical from Grammy Award-winner Sara Bareilles (Girls5Eva, composer of “Love Song” and “Brave”), based on Adrienne Shelly's 2007 motion picture.

Waitress is off on a UK and Ireland tour, kicking off at the New Wimbledon Theatre. Jenna, waitress and pie creator extraordinaire, unexpectedly finds herself pregnant. But will this unwanted twist keep her tied down in a bad relationship or give her the chance to break free?

On September 2, Waitress celebrated its return to Broadway at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre, and following in the great Broadway tradition, ensemble member Anastacia McCleskey was awarded the Legacy Robe.

The return of Waitress brought Sara Bareilles back as Jenna and Drew Gehling as Dr. Pottamer. At the opening night curtain call, the cast called Amanda Kloots onstage to pay tribute to her husband, Nick Cordero. In productions of Waitress around the world, audiences will be able to spot Cordero's 'Live Your Life' Pie' on the menu board in honor of the late actor.
