About the show
The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling BeeConceived by Rebecca Feldman Additional Material by Jay Reiss Music and Lyrics by William Finn Book by Rachel Sheinkin
Presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International
Directed by: Sahai Lara
Produced by: Dana Marley-Kolb
An eclectic group of six mid-pubescents vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life un-affirming “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves! At least the losers get a juice box. Rated PG-13 for language.
