Directed by Greg Hellems

Della Brady is the proud owner of Della’s Sweets, and she has been selected to compete on The Great American Baking Show. But when her best friend’s daughter comes home to North Carolina to get married, Della’s life gets turned upside down when she realizes there’s not just one bride, but two. Della’s husband, Tim, says she can’t possibly bake their wedding cake. But can she? Should she? For the first time in her life Della has to think for herself, forcing her to re-examine some of her deeply-held beliefs, as well as her own marriage. This show is rated PG-16. Contains adult language and situations, and brief nudity. Discretion is advised.

This deliciously funny and emotional play is written by Bekah Brunstetter, the Supervising Producer of the hit NBC show, This Is Us.
