The Guild, the nation's largest not-for-profit touring Broadway presenter, made the gift in honor of Veterans Day. It is routing the tickets through Vet Tix, the nation's largest veteran-focused nonprofit.
With more than 2.9 million verified members, Vet Tix provides event tickets to currently serving military members, veterans from all branches of the armed forces, and the immediate families of service members killed in action.
That puts local service members and veterans in the room for the first engagement of the 2026-27 Broadway at Buddy Holly Hall Series. WAITRESS plays four performances, November 20-22, 2026.
The show follows Jenna, a waitress and expert pie-maker who dreams of a way out of her small town and rocky marriage. She pours her heart into pies that mirror her topsy-turvy life. When a baking contest in a nearby county and a satisfying encounter with someone new show her a chance at a fresh start, she has to find the courage to seize it.
Her menu includes "The Key (Lime) to Happiness Pie" and "Betrayed By My Eggs Pie."
