Adler Theatre at RiverCenter is a historic Art Deco theatre and one of Davenport's distinctive live-performance venues. Opened in 1931 as the RKO Orpheum, the theatre now accommodates around 2,400 guests, while much of its original character remains visible in the gold-leaf ceiling, crystal light fixtures, and ebony, walnut and marble details. Its stage hosts Broadway productions, concerts, comedy, ballet and other live performances.
The auditorium combines a traditional theatre atmosphere with upgraded sound, lighting and stage facilities, allowing the venue to handle productions of different sizes and formats. Seating across the main floor and balcony preserves the feel of a classic theatre, while the historic detailing in the lobby and auditorium creates an experience notably different from a modern multipurpose arena.
The theatre is located at 136 E 3rd St, Davenport, United States, within the RiverCenter complex. The city-owned RiverCenter parking ramp is attached to the complex, with additional street parking available nearby, leaving only a short walk from parking to the theatre entrance.
