Overview
Waitress never thought she’d end up here, 32, clearing plates, taking orders. How did she get here? And what if this is it?
A story of pulling pints and sweeping floors - from a Saturday job refilling coffee cups in South Africa’s young rainbow-nation to a curry house in Camberwell nearly two decades later, we follow Waitress through a life well worked. The lovers, the friends, the adopted families and the terrible tips that made her.
This play is for generation side-hustle. The three jobs and shared flats and no property prospects. Work Bitch is a play about the work we do and how it defines us.
What do we really value? And are we working at it?

Critic reviews
The strength of the piece lies in Siân's tragicomic spin on a life she sees as wasted on a job that's not guaranteeing her a future
