About this event
Waitress: The Musical comes to the Pensacola Saenger Theatre for a two-night run, bringing one of Broadway's most beloved recent musicals to the Emerald Coast. Based on the 2007 film by Adrienne Shelly, with music and lyrics by six-time Grammy winner Sara Bareilles, Waitress tells the story of Jenna, a small-town pie maker who finds the courage to carve a new life for herself. The show features memorable songs including "What's Inside," "She Used to Be Mine," and "Opening Up," wrapped in a warm, funny, and deeply moving story.
This touring production gives Destin and 30A vacationers a rare chance to see a full Broadway musical just 45 minutes away at the stunning 1925 Pensacola Saenger Theatre. Multiple performances are scheduled across October 26–27; check the box office for specific showtime options. A wonderful treat for couples, families, and theater lovers of all ages.
Best for: Theater lovers, Broadway fans, girls night out, couples, families with teens and adults
What to expect: Full Broadway touring production with professional cast, orchestra, and elaborate set design — Sara Bareilles emotional score performed live with humor, heart, and memorable songs
Planning tip: Two nights only — book early as Broadway touring shows sell out fast. Multiple showtimes available each day. The Saenger box office opens one hour before curtain.
Cost: Broadway in Pensacola subscriptions and single tickets available; check pensacolasaenger.com for current pricing
