The directory you're currently trying to run doesn't have a package.json file. Maybe you're outside of the project that you just created. Happens to me most of the time when I'm working in hurry. :D

You can just enter inside your project directory that has package.json file like so (Assuming your project name as geekyShows):

cd geekyShows

npm run start

Hope this helps.
