It’s based on the life of Jenna, a waitress and expert pie maker who’s in a loveless marriage and living in a small town.

Featuring an eccentric, but lovable crew of servers, along with loyal customers, Jenna finds newfound courage. Come see the TOR’s stellar version of the story that took America by storm.
