More than five years after collaborating on the Tony-nominated musical WAITRESS, Jessie Nelson and Sara Bareilles reunited for the absolutely charming Apple TV+ series LITTLE VOICE.
In the musical drama, a young aspiring singer, Bess (Brittany O’Grady), sets out to pursue her performing dreams, while balancing her increasingly complicated personal and family lives. (Though the show is called LITTLE VOICE, the name of Bareilles’ first major album, the show is not autobiographical.)
