La Costa Meadows

Show Information

We are excited to bring the exciting world of Junie B. Jones – a delightful adaptation of four of Barbara Park’s beloved books– to life on stage!

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.

Featuring many lovable characters and fun-filled songs, Junie B. Jones JR. will capture our audience and our performers’ hearts — just as the books captivated an entire generation of students.

How our program works! 

At the elementary school level our program registration is on a first come-first serve basis. We will have a limited amount of spots open on our registration day. Once you register your student they are automatically in the production! If all spots are taken then you can email us to be placed on a waitlist. We will send out an email by the end of that week with additional information. 

At the first few classes, your student will work with our Music Director and Director so they can become familiar with the songs and start preparing for their audition! Yes, each student will still have to audition so we cast them in an appropriate role for the production! Some students might get a leading role and some will play an ensemble role, but ALL roles are vital in the telling of the story!

Please see the next two sections below for important dates and requirements for participation!
