The Des Moines Community Playhouse Adds SEUSSICAL Performance, 5/18

By:

The Des Moines Community Playhouse has added a performance of "Seussical TYA" at 4:00 PM, Saturday, May 18. Tickets for this and the originally scheduled performances through May 19 can be purchased at dmplayhouse.com, at The Playhouse box office, and by phone at 515-277-6261.

"Seussical TYA" centers around Horton the Elephant, who finds himself faced with a double challenge: Not only must he protect his tiny friend, Jojo, (and all the invisible Whos), from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left to his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him.

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.
