I've posted this before, (and will probably do it again), but I think one of the most "overlooked" in the Junior series is "Dear Edwina Junior". I had passed by it many times when perusing for a show, but something made me stop one day (and I am so thankful that I did). Almost vignette based, it provides lots (LOTS) of character roles. Everyone got a chance to appear in several songs/dances. A fun show, some "lessons to be learned", and a hint of a love story. Great fun by everyone involved.

Also.. Honk! Jr. was our crossover show (from "Kids" to Junior series). Another funtastic one, with roles for old and young. (Our current groups goes from age 7 to 17). The "lead roles" in Honk!, are certainly "leads". Whereas in Edwina, it felt more like an entire cast of Supporting Actors. The "Lead" roles were only a little bit larger.

Wish you all the best... and break a leg! (or beak ;o) )
