There are countless, maybe hundreds or thousands of stage plays about this classic. Maybe every school (mainly in the USA) has one or more. Boys, girls (both also teens) and men in bibs. Some just have girl Scout in bibs.
Pic 1 is a photo from the web, I took in Feb. 2010 and I can't find it online now. The original is on an older PC, so I currently can't say more details/location. Probably a smaller production. (Stage play can be earlier than 2010).
Pics 2+3 are from a 2014 clip by Open Air Theatre Regent's Park (Barbican Theatre) in London, adopted by Christopher Sergel. Cem is played by Harry Bennett, Arthur Franks and Billy Price. Scout by Jemima Bennett, Rosie Boore and Ava Potter (probably pictured). Both in raw denim bibs, including sitting. Pics from the trailer (not on stage).
Pic 4 is from 2015/2016 Spotlight's Theatre (Castle Rock, Colorado ?). Directed by Bernie Cardell. Scout played by Darrow Klein. Only she (and men) in bibs. Good bibs, sitting and descending the tire swing.
Unpictured a photo of a boy in raw denim bibs in Topeka Civic Theater. All pics used by Fair Use policy.

I saw the 2014/15 Barbican production twice and it was fantastic. I also saw one at the Gielgud Theatre in 2022, where the kids were played by adults, but I still really enjoyed it, the acting was fantastic and the woman Gwyneth Keyworth playing Scout wore a really nice pair of dungarees. I'd give 10/10 for the Barbican and 7/10 for the Gielgud productions for the bibs, but both would get 9/10 for the play itself.
