Smash hit Broadway and West End musical Waitress to get its Scottish premiere in Edinburgh - Here's when tickets go on sale

Based on the 2007 movie written by Adrienne Shelley, Waitress tells the story of Jenna, an expert pie maker in a small town, who dreams of a way out of her loveless marriage. A baking contest in a nearby county and the town’s new doctor may offer her a chance at a new life, while her fellow waitresses offer their own recipes to happiness.

But Jenna must find the courage and strength within herself to rebuild her life. This beautiful musical celebrates friendship, motherhood... and the magic of a well-made pie.

With music and lyrics by Grammy award-winning, singer-songwriter sensation Sara Bareilles, who recently appeared on the Graham Norton TV show, performing the hit song from the show She Used To Be Mine, Waitress will run at the Playhouse from Tuesday 12 to Saturday 16 January 2021 as part of its first ever UK tour.

Tickets go on sale Friday 21 February at 10am, with full casting to be announced in due course.

Directed by Tony-award winner Diane Paulus and choreographed by Lorin Latarro, Waitress has won multiple awards and nominations in both America and the UK, receiving acclaim from audiences and critics alike.

The show opened on Broadway on 24 April 2016 at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre, where it ran until 5 January 2020 and celebrated its official opening night at the Adelphi Theatre in London’s West End on 7 March 2019.
