Todrick as Ogie is just desperate. I’m all for the Colleen casting as I think she’ll be great as Dawn, but Todrick as Ogie just seems strange to me. I wonder if Shoshana had a big part in getting Todrick in as she’s good friends with him.

Does anyone know if Ashley Roberts does stage door? Idk, I haven't seen any pics of her at SD on social media? I know she has her early morning radio show right, so I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't SD if she needs to her up early for that .... it's a long day for her!

The pies are now made by Bread Ahead bakery and not The Theatre Cafe.

I’m thinking of hanging about outside the Adelphi with one of those usherette trays full of Mr Kipling mini fruit pies. Maybe even a Bakewell Finger or a Fondant Fancy. Fiver each, please and thank you.
They would go down a bomb with arriving tourists who’d totally think I was legit, and Waitress couldn’t touch me for it! 🥧

I'm sure you all will be tuning in Waitress loves a morning cookery chat show! Kat, Jack and now Ashley 😆 Waitress closed off the upper circle for sales today which is worrying for a Friday. They’ve just opened it up again but there’s a lot of seats available for tonight. Show’s in a post OGs slump right now with sales so hope it picks up soon. 😬 Not sure if Ashley is helping with ticket sales or not?

They always seem to give the cast time off if they do tv don’t they? Even if its five performances in!

None of the cast has missed a show previously because of a tv scheduling conflict. And Ashley’s show is tomorrow morning so I doubt that’s why she’s off. Maybe she’s sick or had a scheduling conflict that was pre-approved 🤷🏻♀️

I don’t know about Jack but Kat wasn’t off. She didn’t miss a show until 100+ shows

Can you guys help me? Looking to see this on a Saturday matinee, want to get rush tickets but what is the likelihood I will get rush tickets for a Saturday? Do they tend to sell super fast? Debating whether to just book an upper circle ticket now for reassurance? Wish they did dayseats at weekend

Debating whether to just book an upper circle ticket now for reassurance? Wish they did dayseats at weekend I don't think you'll have any problem at all. Rush seats don't sell out quickly, especially with this cast. The only time I didn't manage to get them was in KMP's last performance. And matinee is always easier than the evening. In the unlikely event that you don't manage to get them you can book upper circle tickets in the morning of the show, I'm sure there will be availability.

Yeah stagey like andrew says you should be fine. Last week the today tix were selling out super quickly (and I assume they weren’t selling so many) and gone by about 10.30-11.00 but this week they’ve been selling well into the afternoon. Also there’s a lot of availability for tomorrow still so I’m sure you’ll be good. You could always risk upper circle tickets for tomorrow’s matinee and see if they close it and you might get moved down to the dress circle or stalls but that’s always a risk.

Thanks guys! sparky5000 and andrew, good to know the chances are high! It’d for a Saturday in a few weeks in July I’m looking to go to. Hoping to get 2 rush tickets for the matinee, I will make sure I go on todaytix at 10am so fingers crossed! I’ll see tomorrow whether they sell fast out of interest too. And that’s a good idea if they all sell out to just buy an upper circle ticket on the day of the show if I cannot get rush, I’m sure there’ll be availability as quite a lot of seats still there for tomorrow for instance. Does the theatre offer dynamic pricing where tickets online go down dramatically on the day of a performance? Whilst they don’t offer dayseats, I wonder if they would discount tickets still if I phoned up or visited on the day. Fingers crossed rush tickets don’t tell anyway! Thanks for the help

Thanks for the help They tend to release additional Rush tickets around 11am too if the shows not sold well that day to try and fill it up. Be patient at 10am if you don’t get them instantly, as they go into peoples baskets instantly and stay there for 10 minutes until they buy or cancel.. I usually go back on around 10.15am and they’re available again. Good luck!

I didn't realize that Ashley was on the radio. Jamie and Amanda have been heavily advertised but this is the first that I've known that she is their showbiz correspondent.

TodayTix now top billing Ash above rest of cast.Basically the premise is that names sell tickets and therefore save shows from failing.Is that true?

Well Ashley’s been cast with a view to selling more tix than Laura would have done so that’s the plan I guess! stagey - they don’t seem to be selling today tix rush tickets at all for today’s shows as a heads up. Not sure if this is gonna be all Sats going forward or just today!

It’s the Ashley Roberts show! Well not today because she’s not in Waitress against today according to @westendunderstudies ... pretty weird considering she’s literally just started, unless she’s not contracted to do the full 8 shows 🤔 - she was on Saturday Kitchen this morning.
