The Black Hills has plenty of attractions for everyone - from hiking and biking trails, rock climbing and beautiful mountain lakes, to Reptile Gardens and Bear Country. Oh, yeah. There's Mount Rushmore, too. :) You're never far from some sort of entertainment or get away.
There is one nugget in the Black Hills that is a great experience. It's fun and entertaining. 
It's the Black Hills Playhouse. Nestled among the trees in Custer State Park is a Playhouse where a variety of plays and musicals are performed all summer long. It's not right off the beaten path - the drive through the Hills justs adds to the experience! If you're staying in Rapid City - no fair taking the highways back. You have to take the back route!
My wife and I went to a play this past month and really enjoyed the trip. This past year they added air conditioning...which means you aren't sweating the whole time while watching the performance as in prior years. The play we watched was a musical (so they said a few lines and then burst out into song). We were impressed with the live band and the singing. The 4 main performers sang all the songs and sang the backup voices as well - nicely amplified by personal microphones. Although the plot of the play needed some help, the actors sang their socks off and it was very enjoyable.
So if you are in the Hills vacationing, take some time off for your artsy side and hit a performance at the Black Hills Playhouse. Check out their website at www.blackhillsplayhouse.com.
It's good stuff. Enjoy the trip.
