I've made the two suggested changes:

set theProject to project named theProjectName

display dialog name of theProject as string

I added the following line after "tell theProject"

set theProject to project named theProjectName

I get the following error:
OmniFocus got an error: Can’t get project "Waiting For..." of project id "f3xRiry3AmI" of document id "dmjA-CUMhkW".

It appears it can't find the project but the project "Waiting For.." exists in OmniFocus and is active and not nested.

Thanks
