The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Beehas wowed audiences all over the world with its effortless wit and humour. Based on a fast-paced, wildly funny and touching book by Rachel Sheinkin and a truly fresh and vibrant music score by William Finn, this show is one unforgettable experience.
The story follows six kids competing for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While openly sharing amusing and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of hilariously unlikely and often made-up words, hoping to avert the soul-destroying "ding" of the bell that signifies a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter - one speller leaves! At least the losers get a juice box.
The cast is fun and eccentric, where grown adults portray guileless middle school kids and their teachers and parents. Get tickets and see for yourself.
