SHOW DESCRIPTION
Della makes cakes, not judgment calls – those she leaves to her husband, Tim. But when the girl she helped raise comes back home to North Carolina to get married, and the fiancé is actually a fiancée, Della’s life gets turned upside down. She can’t really make a cake for such a wedding, can she? For the first time in her life, Della has to think for herself.
CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
Della: (Age 45-60s) A warm, pleasant, motherly, and conservative Southern baker from North Carolina who is overly dependent on her husband’s opinions and faces a crisis of conscience. (Brief presentation of lingerie during a dream/fantasy sequence)
Tim: (Age 45-60s) Della’s husband; a hard-working, sweet “good ol’ boy,” conservative, and traditional.
Jen: (Age 20-30s) Della’s goddaughter (raised like a daughter/late best friend’s daughter) who has dreamed of her wedding day since she was a child.
Macy: (Age 20-30s) Jen’s liberal, New York-based fiancée. Black/African American
