When is Waitress playing in Nottingham in 2026?

Waitress is at the Royal Concert Hall Nottingham from Monday 10 August to Saturday 15 August 2026, for a one-week run on the 2026 UK and Ireland tour.

What is Waitress about?

Waitress follows Jenna, a waitress and expert pie-maker who dreams of some happiness in her life but is stuck in an unhappy and controlling marriage; when she discovers she is pregnant and a hot new doctor arrives in town, a lucrative pie contest and the support of her friends Becky and Dawn give her hope that she can change her future.

What themes does the musical explore?

The musical explores domestic abuse, low self-esteem, friendship, motherhood, infidelity, and the courage it takes to change your life, using Jenna’s imaginative pies, humour, and the close bond between the three waitresses as a warm and moving way to show how she processes her feelings and slowly finds the strength to stand up for herself.

Has Waitress received any major awards or nominations?

Waitress has received several important nominations, including four Tony Award nominations on Broadway, and the West End production has been nominated for two Olivier Awards for Best New Musical and for Sara Bareilles’s music and lyrics in the Best Original Score or New Orchestrations category.

Who created the music and who is on the creative team?

The music and lyrics are by singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles, with a book by Jessie Nelson and direction by Tony Award winner Diane Paulus, forming a female-led creative team whose contemporary pop-influenced score and emotionally honest storytelling helped make the show a much-loved hit in New York, London, and now on tour.

Where is Waitress performed in Nottingham?

In August 2026, Waitress is performed at the Royal Concert Hall on Theatre Square in Nottingham, a major city-centre venue that hosts large touring musicals and concerts and offers a range of seating from stalls near the stage to tiered levels with broad views of the stage.

Who is starring in the Nottingham dates?

For the Nottingham visit, producers have announced that Les Dennis and Evelyn Hoskins join the UK and Ireland tour cast for the Royal Concert Hall week, with Evelyn Hoskins playing Dawn and Les Dennis playing Joe, while casting for the role of Jenna at these performances is still to be announced.

What are the performance times in Nottingham?

During the Royal Concert Hall run, evening performances are at 7:30 pm from Monday to Saturday, with a midweek matinee at 2:00 pm on Wednesday 12 August and further daytime performances listed on selected dates, so you can choose between afternoon and evening shows.

How long does the performance of Waitress usually last?

The performance typically lasts around two and a half hours including an interval, so you should allow a full evening (or afternoon for a matinee) and plan your travel and parking so you can arrive in good time and leave the theatre without rushing afterwards.

Is Waitress suitable for children and families?

Waitress contains adult themes such as domestic abuse, infidelity, pregnancy, and some strong language and sexual references, so the Nottingham venue lists an age guidance of 13+, with under 14s needing to be accompanied by an adult and the show generally recommended for teenagers and adults rather than younger children.

How can I get cheaper tickets for Waitress in Nottingham?

To get cheaper tickets, look at early-week performances instead of Friday and Saturday nights, consider the Wednesday matinee if you can attend during the day, choose seats further back or towards the sides rather than premium central stalls, and book early so you have access to the lower price bands before they sell out.

Are there discounts or special offers available?

You may be able to save money with members’ discounts, under-26 offers, group discounts when buying several seats together, and occasional midweek or off-peak promotions, so it helps to compare different dates and performance times on the Royal Concert Hall site, use reputable ticket outlets, and avoid marked-up resale listings so you do not overpay for your tickets.
