Why see Waitress?
A New Staging From 5th Avenue!
So good it will make your mouth water, Waitress took Broadway by storm and now brings the sweet treats to Seattle's prestigious 5th Avenue Theatre, directed and choreographed by Lisa Shriver in an exciting new staging, Scored by pop singer Sara Bareilles, this heart-warming musical follows a small-town waitress who sees a chance to leave her small town behind by winning a baking contest.
What Is The Story?
Jenna works as a pie chef in a small-town diner. Her baking time is a kind of meditation, a break from her mundane existence where her creativity can flourish. Renowned throughout the town for her crinkly crusts and fluffy pastries, she harbors dreams of opening her own pie shop and making a new life for herself. But when she becomes unexpectedly pregnant by her bullying husband Earl, it seems like she may have to abandon her dreams forever.
Hope is at hand in the form of the town's handsome new doctor, and the announcement of a pie-making competition in a nearby town. The winner of the contest will be awarded a large cash prize, and Jenna realizes it may be her one shot at turning her life around.

Colourful, creative, enchanting
While many Broadway shows sweep you away into far away worlds and mystical settings, Waitress offers a simply charming slice of life from a small town diner with little to nothing going on.

THE mucial to see in 2023!
Saw the Matinee performance Thursday July 21st 2022 14:30 hours - This musical blew me away!! I am sad to see it leaving London, as it was only a 2.5 hours train ride down there, but at least I get a chance to see it once more before it leaves.
If you like the movie - this is a bucket list for you! No argument! You must see it.
If you havent seen the movie or not over fussed about it, you will still LOVE this. The acting is excellent, really funny moments. The orcherstra were amazing, the songs are well done and well performed, the sets are epic and the whole thing is just the best family wholesome fun show to watch.
I left the theatre in a total high and it really is deserving of all the praise and attention it's getting.
It's been in London for awhile now, still selling out their shows and standing ovations...
It's made me feel like watching the movies again!!
