Waitress

What is more American than apple pie? A small-town
waitress with a dream and the ingredients for success! Sugar, butter, flour. These arent the only ingredients Jenna, a waitress and expert pie maker, uses to make her famous pies. Stuck in a small town and a loveless 
marriage, Jenna unexpectedly becomes pregnant, and then finds acceptance and love in the most unexpected place. Hoping to bake her way out of her troubles, she puts her heart and soul into her unique pies, winning over anyone who tastes them. But while battling expectations and self-esteem issues, Jenna’s delicious pies reflect her state of mind with names like I Hate My Husband Pie, and Pregnant, Miserable, Self-Pitying Loser Pie. Each of us will find something relatable in Jenna’s struggles and triumphs. Full of romance and the joy of an uninhibited fling, Waitress challenges the story of a pregnant woman trapped in a small town between the life she’s living and the life she wants. Her customers, co-workers, and the town’s handsome new doctor may all offer her conflicting recipes for happiness, but only Jenna can do the 
soul-searching to decide for herself what the right ingredients are for her own 
happiness. Want to know her secret recipe?

The trip is a co-op with Rolling Meadows Park District and includes lunch and a show.
