New Conservatory Theatre Center Presents THE CAKE

In October, New Conservatory Theatre Center is proud to serve up the regional premiere of The Cake, a comic confection written by Bekah Brunstetter and directed by Tracy Ward. Things are on the rise for Della. She's been accepted as a contestant on the Great American Baking Show, her faith is as solid as ever, and her goddaughter, Jen, is back in town and wants Della to bake her wedding cake. But cracks start to appear in Della's idyllic life when she learns Jen is marrying a woman - something that goes against everything Della believes. From Bekah Brunstetter, a writer on the Emmy-nominated series, This Is Us, comes a delectable story about love, political divisions, and the value of a good piece of cake.

The Cake runs Oct 25 - Dec 1, 2019. Opening Night is Saturday, Nov. 2, 2019 at 8pm. Tickets are $25-55 and available at nctcsf.org, emailing boxoffice@nctcsf.org or by calling (415) 861-8972.
