Ramona Quimby
By Len Jenkin
Based on the novels by Beverly Cleary
Directed by Susan Kosoff
October 29 – November 28, 2004
“Being grown up is hard work. Being a kid and trying to become grown-up is even harder. Change has come to the Quimby household this autumn, and nothing will ever be quite the same again. Especially for Ramona–that “spying, evil munchkin” with an overactive imagination and a knack for causing trouble. Long-suffering older sister Beezus is our guide through this eventful year of adventures and misadventures on Klickitat Street–each of which Ramona contends in her own inimitable style. Will she become a third grade drop-out? Will she make a million dollars doing ads for Non-Skid Pantyhose? Will she ever stop baking dolls in lasagna? The answers (and Ramona’s important discovery of what she wants to be when she grows up) lie within this delightful dramatization of Beverly Cleary’s unforgettable “Ramona” series.”
