HONK! THE MUSICAL
November 29 - December 22
Book and Lyrics by: Anthony Drewe
Music by: George Stiles

Ugly looks quite a bit different from his darling duckling brothers and sisters. The other animals on the farm are quick to notice and point this out, despite his mother’s protective flapping. Feeling rather foul about himself, the little fowl finds himself on an adventure of self-discovery, all the while unknowingly outwitting a very hungry Cat. Along the way, Ugly meets a whole flock of unique characters and finds out that being different is not a bad thing to be. Experience this joyful musical celebrating the beauty of diversity and the power of inclusivity.

WILD FIRE AND THE BIRD SCOUTS

March 14 - 30
Written by: Kristin Idaszak

The fledglings of Bird Scout Troop #7 are on their first ever annual migration when they find themselves lost in a forest that’s been ravaged by fire. On their quest to rejoin their flock, the scouts must overcome encounters with a desperate predator, an ancient oak tree, and Wildfire herself. Wildfire and the Bird Scouts is a story about the way we ask the next generation to solve the problems that we have created. It’s about ingenuity and resilience in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles. And it’s about the way our environment is changing irrevocably.

THE 25th ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE
May 16 - June 8
Book by: Rachel Sheinkin
Music & Lyrics by: William Finn
Conceived by: Rebecca Feldman
Additional Material by: Jay Reiss

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 a champion! At least the losers get a juice box. Don’t miss the side-splittingly hilarious Tony Award-winning musical!
