DM Playhouse Presents YESTERDAY AND TODAY 3/11, 3/12

Rock to the music of The Beatles in an interactive concert experience where the audience creates the playlist for the night... EVERY NIGHT! "Yesterday and Today" returns to The Des Moines Playhouse for four performances only, 7:30 PM Thursday and Friday, March 11 & 12, and 6 PM and 9 PM, Saturday, March 13. Tickets are now on sale at The Playhouse ticket office, by phone at 515-277-6261, and online at dmplayhouse.com. All seats are $25.

Everyone has a Beatles song attached to an event in his or her life. Before "Yesterday and Today" begins, audience members share their song with the band and help create the night's playlist. Through laughter and personal stories, "Yesterday and Today" connects the audience and performers in a way like none other. Each performance is a unique and remarkable event. With dead-on musical precision, Billy McGuigan ("Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story"; "Rave On") and his band immerse the audience in the sights, sounds, and memories of the 1960s.

The Playhouse is Iowa's oldest and largest producing theatre. Located at the 42nd Street exit of I-235, the theatre has presented a full season of shows since 1919 and also offers a wide variety of educational experiences including classes for ages 4 to adult, theatre trips to New York, and volunteer opportunities onstage and backstage.
