Waitress: the musical

Broadway tryout, now at the ART, and certainly worth seeing. Some nifty singing and inspired sets, a book that stays one step ahead of the game, and some fine actresses; this is what Diane Paulus does, and she does it well.

I’m still not quite sure why Harvard’s repertory company needs to stage Broadway tryouts, but this one’s a keeper.
