Amadeus at Des Moines Playhouse

Dates: 6/20/2027

📍 Theatre: Des Moines Playhouse


831 42nd St
Des Moines, IA

Phone: 5152776261

Tickets: Tickets start $25


In the court of the Austrian Emperor Joseph II, Antonio Salieri is the established composer. Enter the greatest musical genius of all time: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Salieri has given himself to God so that he might realize his sole ambition – to be a great composer. Mozart is a foul-mouthed, graceless oaf who has that which is beyond Salieri’s envious grasp: Genius. A Tony Award-winning drama filled with the sounds of rivalry and inspiration.

The show runs Wednesday through Saturday at 7:30 PM and Sundays at 2:00 PM.
