Junie B. Jones!

 

Sneak a peek into the "Top-Secret Personal Beeswax Journal" of the outspoken and  lovable Junie B. Jones!

​

It's Junie B.'s first day of first grade, and a lot of things have changed for her: Junie's friend, Lucille, doesn't want to be her best pal anymore and, on the bus, Junie B. makes friends with Herb, the new kid at school. Also, Junie has trouble reading the blackboard and her teacher, Mr. Scary, thinks she may need glasses. Throw in a friendly cafeteria lady, a kickball tournament and a "Top-Secret Personal Beeswax Journal," and first grade has never been more exciting.

Featuring a tremendously loveable character and fun-filled songs, Junie B. Jones will capture your hearts just as the books captivated an entire generation of students.

Alicia is excited to be back as Stage Manager and Assistant Director of Junie B. Jones! Alicia was Stage Manager for Descendants with YAT last year and cannot wait to see some familiar faces and welcome new ones. Alicia is a mom of three and the Junie B. Jones books and musicals have been a big part of her kid's childhoods. Her older daughter was in Junie B. Jones: Jingle Bells, Batman Smells and her son crewed Junie B. Jones the Musical, both at Junior Theater. Alicia hopes the tradition continues at YAT as her youngest daughter will be auditioning for the show.
