Brought to life by a groundbreaking all-female creative team, this irresistible new hit features original music and lyrics by 6-time Grammy nominee Sara Bareilles ("Brave," "Love Song"), a book by acclaimed screenwriter Jessie Nelson (I Am Sam) and direction by Tony Award® winner Diane Paulus (Pippin, Finding Neverland). "It's an empowering musical of the highest order!" raves the Chicago Tribune.
Inspired by Adrienne Shelly's beloved film, WAITRESS tells the story of Jenna (Bareilles). A waitress and expert pie maker, Jenna dreams of a way out of her small town and loveless marriage. A baking contest in a nearby county and the town's new doctor may offer her a chance at a fresh start, while her fellow waitresses offer their own recipes for happiness. But Jenna must summon the strength and courage to rebuild her own life.
"WAITRESS is a little slice of heaven!" says Entertainment Weekly and "a monumental contribution to Broadway!" according to Marie Claire. Don't miss this uplifting musical celebrating friendship, motherhood, and the magic of a well-made pie.
Show was fantastic. Acting and music were very well done
Here's your tip - go see this show! Great production and performers. You deserve a treat, this show. Butter, Sugar Flour power!
Saw and loved the movie, but the sound system at the Adler Theater so inadequate that we could not understand most of the dialogue and singing. Seats in the balcony so uncomfortable that we paid more to move to the main floor.
A great facility, easy parking, and the pleasure of Broadway performance quality singing and dancing. I would love to see a fund raiser to purchase new seating for the Adler. That was my only discomfort for the evening. I will eagerly attend future shows and would be happy to contribute to a “Buy Your Seat” campaign.
Waitress at the Adler Theatre was fabulous! The show was funny, entertaining, and well done. The actors and actresses were all very talented singers! I highly recommend going to the show!
Its a wonderful show so happy to have seen it again local. Loved it!! PS I wanted Pie 🥧
Of course I knew the music would be fantastic as Sara Bareilles is awesome. Cast was excellent and the pit was above most traveling shows. I would highly recommend this show!!
This show was absolutely amazing! The performers did an awesome job, everything about it was simply phenomenal!! I highly recommend seeing this show if you have the chance!!!
I loved EVERYTHING about this! The concept, the singing, the live band! It was all spectacular!
Left halfway through it it was disgusting I want my money back
We came thinking we were going to be entertained with beautiful music and laugh. This was a disgrace using sexual and disgusting events I found not funny. Life is full of bad things they don't come to the theater to feel bad a doctor screwing his Pregnant patient on his Office table! What are you thinking what A disappointment I'd love to have my money back
First of all, WAITRESS was a great play. After paying a sizable sum of money for 2 tickets, we tried squeezing in the tiny allotment of space- I am a normal size woman, but my husband is 6’7”. We could of handled this and will plan better on our next tickets, but a young women had a horrible cough for the entire 2 hours- it was almost “scary”. I know you can’t manage the health of audience, but it totally detracted from the play.
My main complaint is regarding the sound. Very difficult to hear the dialog. Songs were better. I spoke with friends who attended and they had the same complaint. We considered leaving at intermission, but instead got the hearing devices. Neither one of them functioned properly. So, all in all, not a very fun evening.
A perfectly relatable group of characters in realistic scenarios. Plays out well and leaves you content.
I did love the scenery staging, the cast was very talented and I loved the use of the ensemble. I think my issue is as a health care professional the whole affair with the doctor upset me.
From Ticketmaster purchase to accommodations at the Plaza, experience was perfect!!
The show was awesome the lead really showed her potential on stage! All the actors did an amazing job would definitely see it again
Im speechless! Thank you Waitress on Tour! It’s been one of the best broadway shows I’ve ever seen! ♥️
The show itself was amazing. The cast was perfect. The venue however was a bit uncomfortable... I definitely think it's time to update the seat cushions in that place.
Absolutely love Waitress the movie, so when I heard it was being turned into a musical I was ecstatic! To top it off Sara Bareilles was writing the lyrics and music?! Yes ma'am! So my youngest and I went to last night's show in Jacksonville and we had a blast! I was shocked to see it was an older crowd and didn't see a single soul singing along like we were, but loved watching people react to the entire show. My youngest was a little uncomfortable with "Bad Idea Reprise" scene but I thought it was hilarious. It did start a few minutes late but people were still pouring in to watch the show. This cast did phenomenally well. We laughed, we despised Earl, and we cried. Every single performer played their character well. Absolutely phenomneal show! I will be singing the songs for a long time!
