Nominated for six Tony Awards, this unlikely hit musical is about the unlikeliest group of heroes: a quirky yet charming cast of outsiders for whom a spelling bee is the one place where they can stand out and fit in at the same time. Six young people in the throes of puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, learn that winning isn’t everything and that losing doesn’t necessarily make you a loser. And at every performance, four audience members will join the Bee on stage for their chance at immortality (just come 45 minutes early to sign up)!
