DM Playhouse Hosts Teen Night Tonight

By:

The Des Moines Playhouse is the home for Second Saturday, an alternative Saturday night entertainment for young people in grades 6-12. The final Second Saturday of the season is 7:30 PM, today, May 10. Cost is $8. Pre-registration is strongly encouraged, and is available online at dmplayhouse.com.

Second Saturday is an evening of laughter and skits, theatre games and theatre sports. Teens work in groups and meet new people. While Second Saturday isn't a class, it is led by The Playhouse's professional education staff who will help teens create impromptu skits similar to "Whose Line Is It Anyway?"

Second Saturday is held each month, September-May. Second Saturday will return Saturday, Sept. 13.

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.

For more information on the Playhouse's educational offerings, call 515-974-5356.
