Junebug has never felt right except as stagehand at her father's summer theater, but after her parents separate and an annoying intern takes over her responsibilities, she discovers how hard life can be without a script to follow. - Simon and Schuster
Props are important, and so is making thunder and closing curtains. Junebug takes these jobs very seriously: The Blue Moon is a serious playhouse, and her parentsâ pride and joy. But lately the stagehand mindsetâgo unnoticed, donât say a word, be as invisible as you canâis applying to Junebugâs life offstage as well. And thatâs not a role sheâs happy with.
As Junebug starts speaking upâabout her sisterâs ego, about the weird kid on staff, about her momâs abrupt departure, and about her fatherâs new leading ladyâshe begins to realize that itâs hard to work without a script...and that sometimes scenes play out in ways that arenât intended.
