The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a fresh story of an eclectic group of six mid-pubescents who vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their personal lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of zany words, hoping to never hear the soul crushing sound of the spelling mistake bell. A hilarious musical, complete with audience participation, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee with a fast paced, wildly funny and touching book by Rachel Sheinkin and a truly fresh and vibrant score by William Finn, is one unforgettable experience.
