Rock Box Theater is the most enjoyable and uplifting fun to be had in the great state of Texas. Â My wife, extended family, and close friends have been on numerous occasions. We have been thrilled each and every time.
The talent on display is truly world class (if you love Barney Fife, he's there in in all his hilarity) and the quality of the musical entertainment is equal to anything you can get anywhere. (uh sorry...no opera)
Another gem is you don't have to take in the smog, traffic, or uncaring attitudes so prevalent in larger cities. Â Fredericksburg has fantastic dining, shopping, museums, art galleries, wineries, parks, and lodging of all types.
If you're not convinced, try it, you will be glad you did...
My husband and I spent the weekend in Fredericksburg for his birthday, and as we were driving around downtown, we saw Rockbox Theater. Curious, we looked it up online and decided to take a chance and buy tickets for the Saturday night show.
We were very pleasantly surprised. This group of musicians and singers, some of whom have been together for over 20 years, were fabulous! A musical revue featuring songs from George Strait, Roy Orbison, Buddy Holly, Bette Midler, the Eagles, Fleetwood Mac and more. The show was just over 2 hours with a short intermission, where we could buy warm cookies and drinks. After the show we were able to interact with the cast.
Family-friendly, which we liked, and very entertaining. We even bought their CD!
I had never heard of the Rockbox Theater until a few weeks ago, but this hidden gem was the highlight of our recent trip.
The nearly 2 hour show features a cast of  7 or 8 very talented singers and musicians along with a weekly guest artist..
The music is a survey of classic good times oldies. The show we saw opened with a medley of some of the greatest hits of Motown before featuring  classics from Roy Orbison, Elvis, James Taylor, Steppenwolf, BTO, Johnny Cash, Stevie Ray Vaughan and many others.
It's all delivered professionally and with a lot of heart. In addition, there are some very funny moments interspersed throughout the show.
From the outside the theater just looks like another old building, but inside it is very nice, new and comfortable. The stadium style seating means there's not a bad seat in the house.
I enjoyed this show more than many shows I've seen in Las Vegas or Branson. The show is 100% family friendly and the cast was very nice to meet after the show.
We can't wait to go back for their Christmas show.
Fantastic performance!
The theater has a group of resident thespians who perform a different show every weekend - except during winter, when they perform their Christmas revue, which is what we went to see.
They scared me a bit at the beginning because it began like an amateur concert, but after the first two songs, they quickly switched into phenomenal impersonations, parodies, and lots of other entertaining bits.
They pride themselves on being 100% family friendly, which I think is a shame, but even that didn't make the show boring or tame!
I highly, highly recommend seeing a performance if you're in Fredericksburg - or even taking a trip there just to see one!
