Sweet! A Zoom talkback about “The Cake”

What are the ingredients of a successful show? A fresh script, five cups of acting talent, an ample supply of designers, more than a sprinkle of fine directing, and much more went into cooking up The Cake. Join director Lisa Mallette and the cast (including the one surprise actor you won’t see on stage!) for a free, fun Zoom talkback.

We host these online talkbacks about halfway through the run of the show so that we can talk not only about the rehearsal process but about how the audiences are reacting. A show isn’t complete until the final character — the audience — enters the building, and it’s fascinating to hear their reactions and new interpretations.

Got questions for our artists? Come ask them in the Zoom room, or keep your camera off and ask them in the chat. It’s all good. And if you have questions in advance, feel free to email them to our Zoom host, City Lights marketing director Rebecca Wallace.

Our Zoom talkbacks are casual, engaging, and completely free. Just “buy” a free ticket to receive the Zoom link in your email.

The Cake  is generously supported by Executive Producer Sandra Moll and Producers Jonathan Karpf & Kathleen Zaretsky
