DIXIE’S TUPPERWARE PARTY Plays Civic Center's Temple Theater For Two Weeks Beginning 10/21

By:

DIXIE'S TUPPERWARE PARTY, the hilarious show starring Dixie Longate, which turned Off-Broadway into a Tupperware-mania celebration rolls back to the Civic Center's Temple Theater for a limited two-week engagement as part of the 2009-2010 Prairie Meadows Temple Theater Series

Tickets for DIXIE'S TUPPERARE PARTY go on sale to the public at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 21, 2009 at the Civic Center Ticket Office, all Ticketmaster locations, charge-by-phone at (800) 745-8000 and online at CivicCenter.org. Groups of 10 or more should call (515) 246-2321.

DIXIE'S TUPPERWARE PARTY, written by Kris Andersson, garnered a prestigious 2008 Drama Desk Award nomination and is now on a 20-city national tour.

DIXIE'S TUPPERWARE PARTY stars Dixie Longate, as the fast-talking Tupperware Lady, who has packed up her catalogues, and left her children in an Alabama trailer park to journey across America. Critics and audiences have howled with laughter as Dixie throws a good ol' fashioned Tupperware Party filled with outrageously funny tales, heartfelt accounts, FREE giveaways, audience participation and the most fabulous assortment of Tupperware ever sold on a theater stage! Loaded with the most up-to-date products available for purchase, Ms. Longate will share how she became the number one Tupperware seller in the world, as she educates her guests on the many alternative uses she has discovered for her plastic products.

Produced by Down South LLC and directed by Patrick Richwood, DIXIE'S TUPPERWARE PARTY will feature costumes designed by Miss Longate and lighting designed by Richard Winkler.

DIXIE'S TUPPERWARE PARTY is presented by the Civic Center of Greater Des Moines at the Civic Center's Temple Theater in the Temple for Performing Arts as part of the Prairie Meadows Temple Theater Series.
