Since the playhouse is adjacent to Center Lake Campground —which Anderson claims is one of the best camping spots in the hills—people can camp, walk from the beach or the trail, and see a show. Mount Rushmore , Crazy Horse Memorial , and many other campgrounds, lakes, and trails are practically in the playhouse’s backyard for a day of family fun. “Plan a date night with someone special, bring a picnic and dine before or after a show, or bring your kids to see live theater,” Anderson recommends. She also advises to dress for the weather and bring layers to prepare for the coolness of evening. Gathering extravagant talent to perform against the backdrop of the Black Hills is exhilarating for Anderson and Workman. “I love seeing families having a great time, and working with the amazingly creative and talented theater artists from across the country,” said Anderson. Workman agrees: “Every summer I bring together a group of artists from all over the country to put on the best productions possible, and it’s always exciting to see what each of those company members bring to the Black Hills Playhouse.” FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT BLACKHILLS PLAYHOUSE.COM+
