0513: Children’s Dance Foundation StageDoor Youth Theatre will present Ramona Quimby
Lucy Wolter plays Ramona and Kendall Fowler Susan in the 2007 CDF production of Ramona Quimby. The production returns June 20-23.
Children’s Dance Foundation StageDoor Youth Theatre will present Ramona Quimby later this month.
The play was adapted by Len Jenkin based on the novels by Beverly Cleary.
Ramona Quimby is unpredictable, exasperating, boisterous and independent, always aggravating her older sister, Beezus, constantly getting into trouble and sometimes “making a big, noisy fuss” when things don’t go her way.
As narrator, Beezus (Beatrice Quimby) introduces the Quimby family and friends and thereby sets the scene for the collection of vignettes that trace Ramona’s tumultuous passage through third grade and through her family relationships.
Homewood resident Kneonia Steel will play Ms. Griggs. Homewood students Emma Noble will play Mrs. Frost and Zoe Nelms the doctor, and Ayona Roychowdhury is part of the ensemble. Julie Meadows is directing the production.
Performances will be held June 20-22 at 7:30 p.m. and June 23 at 2:30 p.m. at the CDF Studio Theatre at 1715 27th Court South.
Tickets are $10 and can be purchased at stagedoor.eventbrite.com or by calling 870-0073. For more on CDF, visit childrensdancefoundation.org.
