Des Moines Community Playhouse

About Us

For more than 100 years, we have been where people of all backgrounds come together to create and enjoy theatre experiences. Nothing compares to live theatre for touching hearts and minds. Whether showy or serious, comedic or dramatic, the Playhouse brings the wow factor and we do it live in everything we do. We foster a fun environment where intimate, moving stories connect and entertain in a way that can transform us all - on-stage and off. From education to entertainment, performance to administration, we are grateful to be involved in the Greater Des Moines community.
