Ramona Quimby...

Youth Conservatory
Past Production - February 2010
Based on the books by Beverly Cleary
Script by Len Jenkin

Directed by Kirsten Horn

Follow the latest adventure of the world’s most animated elementary school student. Ramona, the exasperating but lovable third-grader brought to life over the last 40 years in the books of Newbery Award-winning writer Beverly Clearly, comes to life on the stage. Though a comedy, the play also incorporates issues that touch on the lives of real families. Life is no picnic, and growing up isn’t easy. But with the help of her loving and patient family and friends, Ramona takes on life’s daily challenges -- as audiences laugh and cheer her on.
