VIDEO: Sara Bareilles Leads The Audience In Song At The WAITRESS London Opening!
The Tony-nominated musical Waitress by Sara Bareilles opened tonight at the Adelphi Theatre in London's West End. Check out Bareilles and the creative team in the video below!
Based on the 2007 motion picture written by Adrienne Shelly, Waitress is the first Broadway and West End musical in history to have four women in the four top creative team spots. The show features original music and lyrics by Sara Bareilles, a book by Jessie Nelson, direction by Diane Paulus and choreography by Lorin Latarro.
The West End production of Waitress stars Katharine McPhee (Smash) as Jenna, Emmy-nominee Jack McBrayer (30 Rock) as Ogie, Marisha Wallace as Becky, Laura Baldwin as Dawn, Peter Hannah as Earl, David Hunter as Dr. Pomatter and Shaun Prendergast as Old Joe.
Meet Jenna, a Waitress and expert pie-maker who dreams of a way out of her small town and rocky marriage. Change is on the menu, as long as Jenna can write her own perfectly personal recipe for happiness.
