The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

Musical romp prepping to rock the Harriet S. Jorgensen Theatre in November and December

It is the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee – and six quirky adolescents are competing for the title of champion. A witty, clever and sophisticated story provides an incredibly nuanced and sensitive look at the oddity of competition that is a spelling bee. The Tony Award winner for Best Book, Spelling Bee is a heartwarming, yet eccentric look at the emotional impact of competition. We’re sure that this hilarious musical will cast its spell on Y-O-U.
