About this adventure

Presented by Main Street Theater's celebrated Theater for Youth at MATCH (Midtown Arts & Theater Center Houston), Junie B. in Jingle Bells, Batman Smells! brings Barbara Park's bestselling children's book to life in a laugh-out-loud holiday stage adventure. Spunky first-grader Junie B. Jones is overjoyed about her classroom's Secret Santa gift exchange—until she draws the name of her archnemesis, May! Junie B. must decide between exacting hilarious revenge or discovering the true spirit of holiday generosity. Running a fast-paced 65 minutes with no intermission, this lively production is specifically tailored for preschoolers, kindergarteners, and young elementary students. With engaging physical comedy, bright comic book set design, and post-show actor meet-and-greets, it is the ideal first theater experience for young Houston families.
