By: Julie Musbach May. 03, 2019
The Des Moines Community Playhouse is the home of Second Saturday, an alternative Saturday night entertainment for young adults in grades 6-12. The final date for the current school year is Saturday, May 11, 2019, from 7:30-10:00 PM. The cost is $9. Pre-registration is strongly encouraged and is available online at dmplayhouse.com.
In its 25th year of theatre fun at the Playhouse, Second Saturday is an evening of improvised skits and laughter. In this dynamic environment 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, which will help teens create impromptu skits. Saturday, May 11 will be the last date of the Second Saturday 2018-19 season. The Playhouse, now in its 100th season, is one of the oldest and largest community theatres in the US. 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, visit the Playhouse website at www.dmplayhouse.com or call Robin Spahr, education director, at 515-974-5365
