It's a little known fact, but the popular soft drink Dr. Pepper was born in Waco. That unique taste took the soda world by storm and carved a niche for the brand that led to its worldwide success. The Dr. Pepper Museum is an attraction that traces the genesis of this concoction, how it came to be, how it was marketed and the eventual memorabilia and lore that followed in its wake. See the world's most extensive collection of vintage ads, bottles, items, and interactive exhibits that tell the story of how everyone became a Pepper!

The theatre produces 6 Main Stage Productions, ranging from classic dramas to new Broadway musicals to hilarious comedies.
