“The struggling heart, the goosebumps on the arms, and the big smile on the face…so excited to know that the waitress will continue her adventure!! It will be done as planned!! I'm crying with joy, crying with stress and sheer excitement at the thought of seeing you on stage!”
In recent days, it has been impossible for me to imagine that I will not live this dream, this moment that I have been waiting for for 10 years… It has been impossible for me to imagine that it will not happen, it has been impossible for me to imagine that this success on Broadway will not see The light is here in our language with a wonderful staff!! (Which will be announced soon!!), it's impossible to get used to the idea that I won't be able to wear an apron and Gina's shoes to live in 10 years, and it's one of my greatest feelings when I find you on the scene. But it will happen. For real. As expected. Yes! As expected!!!
There are many of you who have believed in Him from the beginning. To see 20,000+ tickets sold already, that's already a success, it's absolutely crazy!!
From the beginning of this adventure, the stars aligned. There is a lot of magic about this project.
It's a project of the heart, led by people who believe in it.
Thank you to the amazing Just for Laughs team who did everything they could to ensure the waitress didn't die. When we say good-hearted people, there were a lot of them from the beginning in this project.
From one devoted family to another, thank you to ComédiHa for your great dedication, energy and love to save this wonderful show and all the artisans out there. We will be able to bring the stage to life this summer thanks to you Sylvain and your entire team! Without you, none of this would have been possible. On behalf of our extended waitressing family (of which you are now a part :)), thank you so much.
I'm telling you, Gina is ready to meet you in just a few weeks in this musical that will mark you forever!
