Frequently Asked Questions

When is Waitress playing in Hull in 2026?

Waitress is at Hull New Theatre from Tuesday 1 September to Saturday 5 September 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 a hot new doctor arrives in town and she discovers she is pregnant, 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 strong bond between the three waitresses as a warm and moving way to show how she processes her emotions and gradually finds the strength to stand up for herself.

Has Waitress received any major awards or nominations?

Waitress has earned several major 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 Grammy-nominated 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 the show become a much-loved hit in New York, London, and on tour.

Where is Waitress performed in Hull?

In September 2026, Waitress is performed at Hull New Theatre, a major city-centre venue that regularly hosts big touring West End musicals and offers a range of seating from stalls close to the stage to dress circle and upper levels with broad views of the auditorium.

Who is starring in the Hull dates?

For the Hull week, the official tour information lists that casting for the role of Jenna is still to be announced, so unlike earlier venues where Carrie Hope Fletcher is confirmed, Hull New Theatre currently shows the lead casting as to be confirmed nearer the time.

What are the performance times in Hull?

During the Hull New Theatre run, evening performances are at 7:30 pm from Tuesday to Saturday, with additional matinee performances on selected days such as midweek or Saturday afternoons, so you can choose between an evening out and an earlier daytime show.

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 includes adult themes such as domestic abuse, infidelity, pregnancy, and some strong language and sexual references, so Hull New Theatre lists an age guidance of 13+, and it is generally recommended for teenagers and adults rather than younger children.

How can I get cheaper tickets for Waitress in Hull?

To get cheaper tickets, look at early-week performances instead of Friday and Saturday nights, consider any matinee shows if you are flexible on time, choose seats further back or towards the sides rather than premium central stalls, and try to book early so that the lowest price bands are still available when you pick your seats.

Are there discounts or special offers available?

You may be able to save money with early-booking deals, group discounts when buying several seats together, and occasional off-peak or midweek promotions, so it helps to compare different dates and performance times on official listings, use reputable ticket outlets, and avoid marked-up resale listings so you do not overpay for your tickets.
