Tribeca Film Festival Is What Baking Did For Waitress

We have already tested more servers but still want more. And luckily, Sarah Bareilles is happy. The Tribeca Film Festival will present a professional version of the musical, which has been closed to Broadway since 2021 out of competition. The musical opened in April 2016 on the Great White Way before closing in January 2020 before returning to Broadway in September 2021, mostly to film on the same project that closed in December of that year. The Pro version stars Jenna as songwriter Sarah Bareils, with Charity Angel Dawson, Caitlin Houlahan, Drew Gelling, Deakin Matthews, Eric Anderson, Joe Tippett and Christopher Fitzgerald in supporting roles.

Tribeca will take place from June 7 to 18 and will feature 109 individual films by 127 directors from 36 countries, 53 of which will be documentaries. It should be noted that for the first time women direct more than half of the competitive feature films in the festival's programming, with 68%, according to a press release, women direct 41% of all programs. Below is the full list of festival participants.
