Riverside Center Dinner Theater and Conference Facility opened on June 18, 1998, with the theater ‘s inaugural performance of Oklahoma! Since then, Riverside Center has been the site for nearly 80 main-stage musical and dramatic productions, more than 120 musical adaptations of popular children s stories in our Children ‘s Theatre, and innumerable wedding receptions, celebratory social gatherings, business meetings, military balls, high school proms, and special hosted events in our Conference Facility. As such, Riverside Center is positioned within the Fredericksburg and central Virginia region as a centerpiece to an already-thriving cultural community.
