Last night was sugar, butter, FANTASTIC! Our Waitress Street Team went to Times Square for the TSX live Tribeca Film Festival simulcast screening of Waitress – Live On Broadway!
The event marked the first-ever Tribeca Film Festival screening in Times Square. The Times Square viewing of Waitress – Live On Broadway! was open to the public with 300 seats available on a first come, first served basis.
theatreMAMA’s Experiential Brand Ambassadors were at the event to ensure a sweet-as-pie experience for all attendees. Dressed in Waitress aprons and outfits inspired by the Broadway show, our team helped the public download the TSX app so patrons could hear the film’s audio as it was screened on TSX Entertainment’s 18,000-square-foot digital screen in the middle of Times Square. Our Brand Ambassadors also assisted in answering questions about the event, chatting with fans, posing for photos and hyping up the crowd – they even got the audience to do the wave!
The excitement and anticipation for the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of Waitress – Live On Broadway! was palpable. Fans wore Waitress-branded attire and didn’t hesitate to cheer “Sugar, butter, flour!” along with our Brand Ambassadors as they opened up the seating area. Many came prepared with rain gear and event organizers even provided a free poncho at every seat in case of inclement weather. It started raining about 20 minutes into the screening, but that barely deterred Waitress fans who diligently put on their rain gear and stayed until the end of the event.
theatreMAMA had the sweetest time assisting with the TSX Times Square viewing of the Tribeca premiere of Waitress – Live On Broadway! What an honor it was to represent this beautiful show again and to be present at this historic screening event.
