“Little Voice” is described by Amazon as a romantic tale of searching for one’s true voice as a young adult.
The show received a 10-episode order, Amazon said Wednesday. The cast and the release date were not announced.
Abrams, whose credits include “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and “Lost,” will serve as executive producer for “Little Voice.”
The Grammy-nominated Bareilles earned a Tony Award bid last year for her music for “Waitress.”
She and Josh Groban will host Sunday’s Tony ceremony, airing on CBS.
