Magik Theatre's contribution to the holidays is the return of the audience fave “Junie B. Jones in Jingle Bells, Batman Smells.” This time around, Kacey Griffin (left) takes on the role of the irrepressible, malapropism-spouting kiddo. In the show, Junie B. is appalled to have drawn a kid she doesn't like in a Secret Santa project. She's also sorely tempted by the possibility of giving the kid a lump of coal.

Fine print: Opens Wednesday. 9:45 and 11:30 a.m. Tuesdays-Fridays, with additional shows at 7 p.m. Fridays and 2 p.m. Saturdays, through Dec. 22. $9-$10. 210-227-2751;
