Des Moines Community Playhouse Presents THE BREMENTOWN MUSICIANS Friday Funday, 5/18

By:

The Des Moines Community Playhouse presents "The Brementown Musicians," tonight, May 18. This story is part of the 2011-12 season of Friday Funday, a creative participatory story theatre program for children ages 4-6. Performances are at The Playhouse, tonight, May 18, at 9:30 and 10:30 AM, and 1:30 PM. Shows are approximately 45 minutes in length.

May's featured story is "The Brementown Musicians". The donkey brays, the dog howls, the cat meows, and the rooster crows. See what happens when a group of animals with American Idol aspirations meets up with a gang of rowdy robbers.

Join the Clubhouse at The Playhouse Gang each month, October-June, as they dramatize a favorite story using their imaginations and the costume pieces and props they find in their magic trunk. Audience members learn the Clubhouse pledge and secret handshake, and listen for the word of the day. They even help act out the story.

The final performance of the season is a special Friday Funday event, "Pinkalicious," June 7-9.

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.

Admission is $5 per person, adults and children. Reservations are suggested and can be made by calling The Playhouse ticket office at 515-277-6261.
