Playhouse Announces Mini-Season

“Leaving Iowa” will kick off the Playhouse’s winter and spring season on Feb. 19.

Live shows are back at Des Moines Community Playhouse. The theater announced its lineup for a winter and spring “mini-season,” featuring a comedy, a musical and two family-friendly shows. Performances will be both in-person and virtual.

Shows will be presented in repertory, meaning they will alternate weekends. The first series includes “Leaving Iowa,” a comedy about a family road trip, and “Stuart Little,” a theater adaptation of the E.B. White book, from Feb. 19 to March 21. “Some Enchanted Evening,” a musical revue, and “The Velveteen Rabbit,” based on the Margery Williams book, will alternate from April 9 to May 9.

The Playhouse offers a flex subscription—four vouchers that can be used in any combination for shows now through August—as savings over individual show tickets. Performances also will be on-demand. Tickets are available here or by calling 515-277-6261.
