Waitress: The Musical brings the Tony-nominated Broadway phenomenon to National Theatre at Home. Featuring composer-lyricist Sara Bareilles as Jenna Hunterson, a waitress and expert pie maker stuck in a small town and a loveless marriage.  

When a baking contest in a nearby county offers her a chance at escape, Jenna fights to reclaim a long-forgotten part of herself. Through the support of her fellow waitresses and an unexpected romance, Jenna begins to find the courage to take a long-abandoned dream off the shelf.  

Waitress celebrates the power of friendship, dreams, the family we choose and the beauty of a well-baked pie.

A woman in a nurse outfit stands surrounded by four people kneeling and holding different pies around her. The scene is dimly lit, creating a theatrical atmosphere on a checkered floor. A woman in a floral dress sits on a plaid sofa holding a piece of paper, with a guitar beside her. The room has wooden paneling, and shelves with framed photos and a stereo. Soft lighting creates a cozy atmosphere. A woman in a light dress and an older man in a light suit with a bow tie dance together on stage. The scene is dimly lit with a purplish hue. Other performers are visible in the background. A man in a denim jacket sits on a plaid couch in a cozy room, holding a cup while a woman in a blue uniform stands nearby, holding clothes. A guitar rests on the couch. The room has wooden walls with shelves and framed photos. Three women in blue uniforms stand behind a counter with baking ingredients, looking forward with puckered lips as if blowing on something. They appear to be in a kitchen setting with shelves and baking tools behind them.
