Junie B. Jones The Musical JR. SUNDAY
2025-10-19 15:00 - 16:00 (America/New_York) | Andy Griffith Playhouse, 218 Rockford Street, Mount Airy, NC, 27030, United States
Laugh yourself silly with Junie B. Jones in this hilarious Broadway Junior adaptation of Barbara Park’s beloved series.

From Marcy Heisler and Zina Goldrich, the creators who brought you Dear Edwina and Dear Edwina JR., comes Junie B. Jones The Musical JR. – a delightful adaptation of four of Barbara Park’s beloved books.
Join Junie B. on her first day of first grade, where many changes are in store: Junie’s best friend Lucille has found new best friends — and Junie B. makes friends with Herb, the new kid at school. While in Mr. Scary’s class, Junie has trouble reading the blackboard — and she may need glasses. Add in a friendly cafeteria lady, an intense kickball tournament, and a “Top-Secret Personal Beeswax Journal,” and first grade has never been more exciting.
Book and Lyrics by Marcy Heisler
Music by Zina Goldrich
