Diners in a PizzaExpress pizzeria were amazed when the team serving them turned out to be the cast of the hit West End musical, Waitress.
Waitress changed its iconic character uniforms from blue to pink on 18 October for Wear It Pink Day 2019 in support of the charity Breast Cancer Now. The waitresses - Lucie Jones as Jenna, Laura Baldwin as Dawn and Sandra Marvin as Becky – all took to the stage in special pink costumes for the evening performance at the Adelphi Theatre for the fundraising event. In total, £1260.75 was raised from collections at the theatre which will go towards funding breast cancer research and life-changing support. Cast members also went pink for the pre-show warm up and took on the 'Waitress Pie Challenge' after being nominated by their counterparts in the Broadway production to draw attention to and generate support for the cause.
Waitress celebrated the arrival of new cast member Joe Sugg, the YouTube star, filmmaker, author, vlogger and 2018 Strictly Come Dancing finalist, who has joined the West End musical in the role of Ogie. Special guests including Zoella, Alfie Deyes, Caspar Lee, Bryon Langley, Cinzia Baylis-Zullo, Sophia Tuxford, Elle Adams, Mark Ferris, Anna Maynard, Sean Elliott O'Connor and Mikey Pearce attended the smash hit musical comedy at the Adelphi Theatre to see Joe Sugg in his West End debut.
Production images of Joe Sugg in Waitress are released today ahead of his first performance in the hit West End musical this evening where he will be playing the role of Ogie.
Waitress has released the first images of Joe Sugg as Ogie in London's smash hit musical comedy where he will be making his West End debut from 9 September. The YouTube star, filmmaker, author, vlogger and 2018 Strictly Come Dancing finalist will take over the role from Blake Harrison, as previously seen as Neil from The Inbetweeners, following his final performance on 7 September.
