It's Thursday again, so it's time for the weekly review from our peripatetic theater critic, J. Wynn Rousuck. This week, she spotlights Waitress, the new traveling production of the hit Broadway musical that's now on stage at Baltimore's Hippodrome Theatre.Based on the popular 2007 movie of the same name, the musical stage version of Waitress is energized by an all-female creative team, with original music and lyrics by 5-time Grammy nominee Sara Bareilles, book by screenwriter Jessie Nelson and direction by Tony Award laureate Diane Paulus.Waitress tells the story of Jenna (Desi Oakley) - a waitress and a gifted pie maker who has just learned she's pregnant and who dreams of escaping her loveless, stifling marriage. Her hopes for a happier life are stirred by a baking contest in a nearby county, the arrival of the town's new doctor (Bryan Fenkhart), and the encouragements of her fellow waitresses (Charity Angel Dawson and Lenne Klingaman). Waitress continues at Baltimore's Hippodrome Theatre until Sunday, February 4. Ticket info here.
