Meet Jenna, a waitress and expert pie-maker who dreams of a way out of her small town and rocky marriage. Pouring her heart into her pies, she crafts desserts that mirror her topsy-turvy life such as "The Key (Lime) to Happiness Pie" and "Betrayed By My Eggs Pie." When a baking contest in a nearby county - and a satisfying encounter with someone new - shows Jenna a chance at a fresh start, she must find the courage to seize it. Change is on the menu, as long as Jenna can write her own perfectly personal recipe for happiness.
Brought to life by a groundbreaking, all-female creative team, this Tony Award-nominated hit features original music and lyrics by 6-time Grammy nominee Sara Bareilles ("Love Song," "Brave"), a book by acclaimed screenwriter Jessie Nelson (I Am Sam) and direction by Tony Award winner Diane Paulus (Pippin, Finding Neverland).
"Waitress is a little slice of heaven!" says Entertainment Weekly, and is "sweet, sassy and passionate," according to New York Magazine. Don't miss this uplifting and hilarious musical.
The show was incredible except for one part where the old man character made a joke about his past lover losing a full term baby and it being “lucky” that that happened. It was a very tasteless and unnecessary “joke” and would be better if it wasn’t taken out! Luckily, the rest of the show was amazing and quickly redeemed itself!
Was blown away how good this show was. Jordan Sparks was lights out. The show went super quick, great story and the music was upbeat. Really had a great time.
Great energy from a talented cast. Roaringly funny and tender at the same time. Catch it before it's gone!
Outstanding! The actors, stage, music, storyline - theatre.... A really great show! Very well done! Much thanks!
Outrageous lines in the theater ladies room during intermission. It was so bad they were sending women to nearby restaurants and into the men’s room! Intermission was twice as long because if this situation. I will never attend another show in this theater.
We were in NYC for a Monday night so we didn't have many options for a show. Waitress got mostly good reviews so we opted to see it. We were lucky enough to see Jordin Sparks in the lead roll. She's a great actress and has an amazing voice so we were very pleased to see her. The show was silly and at times a little slow, but all in all it was entertaining and the actors were wonderful. We laughed out loud at times to that's always a plus. I'd tell people to go see it if they have already seen the big ones like Hamilton and Phantom which are a must see.
Top notch cast, high energy, and SO TALENTED! Jordin Sparks was AMAZING, but she was also surrounded by a wonderful supporting cast! Five Stars!!
This show had me laughing and crying! My whole Family throughly enjoyed it! So glad this was the show my daughter chose to see on Broadway, while we were in NY!!
What a great show and great performances., I laughed.. I cried ...then laughed again!
Absolutely loved it! The whole cast was exceptional
We selected this show and traveled from St Louis specifically to see Jordan Sparks so we were quite disappointed when we looked in the program and saw that her understudy would be performing instead. It was still a great performance - great cast - but it was extremely disappointing that Jordan wasn't performing and we weren't notified ahead of time.
This is a great show. We went as a group and had a lot of laughs.
Wonderful show! From the time you walk in and smell the pie in the theater, you are immersed into the story. Jordin Sparks was worth every penny! Do yourself a favor and go see this one!
Great singing, great dancing, humor and touching humanity all in one show, fantastic!
The lead was played by a sub, which we didn't know when we bought the tickets. The sound system didn't seem right because the singing and instruments were very loud, but we couldn't understand the words. No memorable songs. The boyfriend/husband of Dawn was the best! Very entertaining.
This is such an amazing story! This was my fourth time to see the show. Amazing talent on that stage! So sad it’s closing in January. Go see it before it’s over.
Light and cute - disappointed that Jordon Sparks did not perform but understudy was very good - entertaining
Jordin Sparks was absolutely amazing as Jenna as well as the entire cast. Such a fun, heartwarming and uplifting show to watch with amazing catchy music by Sara Bareilles. If you have the chance to see this show before it closes in January, DO IT! If you have the chance to see Jordin Sparks as Jenna before October 27th, DO NOT LET THE OPPORTUNITY PASS!
Jordin Sparks had never sounded better! And she was surrounded by a full company of incredible singers and actors. When "Old Joe" sang, it was so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes! The close harmony of the three waitresses was so gorgeous. And Okie, with his dancing, clogging, and magic stole every scene! But he also could really sing! And his comedic timing was impecable. I give it two thumbs ... way up!!
Love the music by Sara Baraleis! The story and everything was lovely. I got to see it with Jordin Sparks which was awesome as well. The only complain was we chose row A top mezzanine and it was a tad tight for our knees.
