November 20-24, 2013

Everyone's favorite rambunctious Junie B. is back just in time for the holidays. Christmas is well until she selects her arch-nemesis, May, for her Secret Santa. Horrors! Junie B. hatches a plan to give May exactly what she deserves. Will Junie B. follow through on her idea or choose to do the right thing? Based on the best-selling Junie B.

BHCT will offer school performances for just $1 per seat November 20-22 and public performances for $10 on November 22-24, 2013. Join us for this insightful play about tolerance and personal responsibility!
