Sneak a peek into the Top-Secret Personal Beeswax Journal of the outspoken and lovable Junie B. Jones (Samantha Arneson). It's Junie B.'s first day of first grade and a lot of things have changed for her. The cafeteria lady is friendlier than Junie's long-time best friend, Lucille (Sarah Frett), who doesn't want to be her best pal anymore. There's a new kid at school named Herb (Shawn Smith Jones). And Mr. Scary (Douglas Cochrane) thinks Junie B. may need glasses! As Junie B. says, "First Grade is not what it's cracked up to be."

The Playhouse is one of the oldest and largest community theatres in the US. Located at the 42nd Street exit of I-235, the theatre has presented a full season of shows since 1919 and also offers a wide variety of educational experiences including classes for ages 4 to adult, theatre trips to New York, and volunteer opportunities onstage and backstage.
