Virginia is known for its history, its scenery, and more recently its wine, but these aren’t the only aspects of the Commonwealth that make it culturally rich. Its citizens are also patrons of the arts, both celebrating and participating in musical performances, theatrical production, and artistic exhibits. Check out these upcoming events, and don’t forget to book your room at a nearby B&B: 9 to 5—The Musical, Fredericksburg: Not only will you get to enjoy a fantastic meal of salmon-stuffed tilapia, manicotti, Shepherd’s Pie, or fried chicken, but this Riverside Center Production will also bring you the theatrics of actress Sally Stuthers, whom you may know as Gloria from All in the Family and Babette from Gilmore Girls.
