Waitress
July 10–19, 2025

Book by Jessie Nelson
Music and Lyrics by Sara Bareilles
Based upon the motion picture written by Adrienne Shelly

Jenna, a waitress and talented pie-baker, is stuck in a small town and a troubled marriage. When life takes an unexpected turn, Jenna fears she may have to abandon her dream of opening a pie shop – until a nearby baking contest and the town’s handsome new doctor offer her the tempting possibility of a fresh start. Surrounded by her quirky crew of fellow waitresses and loyal customers, Jenna summons the secret ingredient she’s been missing all along: courage. Featuring music and lyrics by Grammy Award winner Sara Bareilles, this hit musical offers a special recipe for finding happiness where we least expect it.

“Rises to transporting heights, and sweeps up your heart along with it.”
—New York Times

Waitress is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
