About the show
Based on the 2007 movie of the same name, Waitress tells the story of Jenna, an expert pie maker in a small town, who dreams of a way out of her loveless marriage.
A baking contest in a nearby county and the town’s new doctor may offer her a chance at a new life, while her fellow waitresses offer their own recipes to happiness.
But Jenna must find the courage and strength within herself to rebuild her life. This beautiful musical celebrates friendship, motherhood, and the magic of a well-made pie.
The production first opened on Broadway on 24th April 2016, where it ran at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre until 5th January 2020. The show opened at the Adelphi Theatre, London in March 2019 and has had further successful productions in North America, Japan, Holland, Canada, and Mexico.
