Title: The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee by William Finn, Rachel Shenkin, and Rebecca Feldman

The show dates are Feb 21, 22, 27, 28 and March 1 at 7:30 pm.

Description - The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is at once a heartwarming and hilarious musical.  Young spellers compete in the county spelling bee hosted by a self-absorbed past winner and a disgruntled vice principal. As the spelling bee progresses, the spellers feel the pressure from their families as well as themselves. The comfort counselor, luckily, is on hand to provide candy and care for those spellers who miss a word and have to leave the competition. Throughout the show, flashbacks and fantasies reveal the spellers’ inner lives and minds, as they wrestle with ideas and feelings that are more important than winning. Complete with volunteer spellers from the audience, this musical is a one-of-a-kind crowd pleaser. Recommended for ages 13 and up.
