Precocious, lovable Junie B.

Follow her adventures as she writes down the story of her life in her “Top-Secret Personal Beeswax Journal.” This musical is based on four volumes in Barbara Park’s Junie B. Jones series of books, illustrated by Denise Brunkus and published by Random House: Junie B, First Grader (at Last!); Junie B, Boss of Lunch; Junie B, One-Man Band; and Top-Secret Personal Beeswax: A Journal by Junie B (and Me.   The production is directed by national award winning youth director, Jillian Stones and choreographed by Caitlin Vecchione. The scenic design is by Neil Kapple, and the costumes are by Cindy Haley. This 70-minute musical is recommended for audiences age 4 and up.  This “Theatre for Young Audiences” presentation features both youth and adult actors and stars Katie Herron and Naomi Morales alternating in the title role of “Junie B.”.
