Grades 5 and 6 – Spring Performance Registration is open!
Welcome Back to School!
Join Junie B. on her first day of school, where many changes are in store: Junie’s best friend has found new best friends -but there’s a new kid named Herb that Junie thinks is cool.
Also, while in Mr. Scary’s class, Junie has trouble reading the blackboard — she may need glasses! Add in a friendly cafeteria lady, an intense kickball tournament and a “Top-Secret Personal Beeswax Journal,” and grade school has never been more exciting.
As with Junie’s first day, we anticipate this process to be challenging and fulfilling with complex musical numbers and opportunities for daring choreography!
Start and end dates: Monday, February 1 – Tuesday, June 8, 2027
Tuition: $545
Take a listen to “Top Secret Beeswax” from Junie B. Jones The Musical JR! Press play and imagine yourself in the cast. Ready to take on the challenge? Register today!

During the first two rehearsals, performers will have a chance to show their directing teams their acting, singing, and dancing skills in a low-key, supportive audition. They will also have a second audition in order to help the directing teams put together the casting puzzle in a way that best fits each child and works for the overall process!
-
All actors will audition within the first two weeks of rehearsal.

“I keep coming back because every show, I get new skills and I meet new people. Everyone at Wolf PAC is so nice and supportive, I have loved every cast I have been in. My favorite part of Wolf PAC shows is when it’s dress rehearsal and you do a full run through with music, costumes, props, the set, mics, and everything comes together and it's so magical to get to see a story you have worked on for a long time come to life!”
