This SLT Summer experience concludes with 6 public performances of JUNIE B.'s ESSENTIAL SURVIVAL GUIDE TO SCHOOL, JR., a fun, family-friendly musical based on the popular Junie B. Jones books.
The story follows first-grader Junie B. Jones, who decides she’s the perfect person to write the ultimate guide to surviving school. As she gathers advice about everything from backpacks and classroom rules to friendships and playground drama, Junie B. struggles with writer’s block and keeps getting into trouble along the way.
