Theatreworks/USA Presents JUNIE B JONES At Mercer County Community College 5/30

Step into the world of "Junie B. Jones" and there's fun in store. Theatreworks/USA presents the irrepressible first grader in her very own musical at Mercer County Community College Saturday, May 30, at 2 and 4 p.m. Kelsey Theatre is located on the college's West Windsor campus, 1200 Old Trenton Road.

Based on Barbara Park's best-selling book series, the production chronicles the outspoken and lovable youngster's daily accounts as she describes them in her "top secret personal beeswax" journal. Junie B.'s challenges include meeting a new teacher and a whole new group of friends, adjusting to wearing glasses, participating in the annual kickball tournament and other anxious childhood moments. Young audiences will easily connect with this warm and bubbly heroine, who finds a way to succeed in the end and learns important lessons along the way.
