The Waitress cast has only just starting cooking, and they’re already baking a success, as an extension on the show’s booking period has been announced.
Due to popular demand, more tickets are being released, so you can now buy Waitress tickets up to 19 October 2019.
There will also be a limited number of day seats available to purchase in person from the Adelphi Theatre’s box office for £25 (from 10am, Mon-Weds performances only, subject to availability and at the box office’s discretion).
Waitress is all about Jenna, an expert pie-maker and waitress. Stuck in a small town and an unhappy marriage, Jenna sees a way out of both when she spots a baking contest in a nearby county. Change is on the menu, as long as Jenna can write her own perfectly personal recipe for happiness.
The Tony-nominated musical by Sara Bareilles has been an extraordinary hit in America and is currently playing its third year on Broadway. The London transfer will be led by an all-female creative team, a first for a West End musical.
