What a great evening at the Rex!! Sometimes it can be difficult to find a great source of entertainment in Pensacola but The Rex was fantastic. We enjoyed all of the comedians, especially ending with Philly Plowden (who was on America’s Got Talent)! Good, clean entertainment in Pensacola!! This place is a hidden gem so get by there on Friday nights for comedy and Saturday for the magic shows! Prices are super reasonable and once they explain how they give back to the community, you’ll be even more pleased that you contributed to something amazing in our area!!!! Great for singles, couples, friends, families, or companies!!! Don’t miss this great night of local laughs!!! Thanks Rex, we’ll definitely be back!

Excited to begin performing my comedy magic show at The REX in a few weeks most weekends. Great for families! Details on IG or FB @ RexPensacola — plus we will be bringing in biggest names in comedy as seen on HBO, Netflix and Comedy Central.

The Rex Theater is an amazing venue with a long history in Pensacola. It originally opened as a furniture store in 1922 - but later spent most of its life showing second run movies. Today it’s a church and a live theater - great location in downtown Pensacola, this theater has so much potential but I just don’t think it’s ever been appreciated the way it should be, regardless it’s still a classic!

This Theatre is so cool. Its like your walking into the 50s as soon as you walk in. The staff were very welcoming and everything was very clean. I had a great time and will be coming again especially for the retro movie nights.

Excellent renovation inside and out, great meeting and presentation venue, centrally located in downtown Pensacola across from Martin Luther King Jr. Plaza on Palafox Street just north of Garden Street.

Nice open space, but the chairs werent the most comfortable for long periods of sitting. More of a stage than a theatre.

Was a regular at this theater back in 1957. If memory serves me right, the owner of this theater was named Lloyd. As a Navy couple, we also rented an apartment that was owned by Lloyd. My memories are most pleasant of this theater, the town, and our landlord. Would love to relocate back to Pensacola...

Not really a theatre now, its a church that has speakers in the way of the projector, and a stage small enough to make any performance awful.

Great time! We went and saw the Illusionist- a comedy /magic show combined. I highly recommend this show! We laughed the entire time. Bonus points for the non-profit !!
