Theatre closures due to coronavirus outbreak


England is cautiously moving out of national lockdown due to the coronavirus epidemic, but London theatres remain closed to audiences.


The government has not announced firm dates for theatres to open in England, though a suggested date for indoor performances to restart has been given as 17 May 2021, with capacity restrictions.


Larger theatres may be back with full capacity audiences from 21 June.


London theatres are beginning to announce new show dates and we are updating our listings.


However, we advise checking theatre websites to confirm which shows will be playing in the future.

Synopsis


Meet Jenna, a waitress and expert pie-maker who dreams of some happiness in her life.


When a hot new doctor arrives in town, life gets complicated.


With the support of her workmates Becky and Dawn, Jenna overcomes the challenges she faces and finds that laughter, love and friendship can provide the perfect recipe for happiness.


Brought to life by a ground-breaking, female-led creative team, this 'warm, witty, wise and hilarious' (EXPRESS) hit features 'one of the best scores in years' (THE STAGE) by the Grammy award-winning Sara Bareilles (Love Song, Brave) a book by acclaimed screenwriter Jessie Nelson (I Am Sam) and direction by Tony® Award-winner Diane Paulus (Pippin, Finding Neverland).


Receiving standing ovations night after night in London's West End and on Broadway, WAITRESS is 'the real deal' (INDEPENDENT) musical comedy 'made from the finest ingredients' (TIME OUT).
