Rivertown Theaters Presents The Younger Set Favorite JUNIE B JONES The Musical on the Lagniappe Stage

Rivertown Theaters for the Performing Arts continues their commitment to showcase and develop the talents of budding local thespians with the very special production based on the popular children's book.

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.

The delightful musical will appeal to the whole family and feature young performers from around the metropolitan New Orleans area. Cast members will be in the lobby after the show for a meet and greet with the audience.
