Mainstage Theatre: The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
(Music/Theatre/Dance)
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 to never 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.
Music and lyrics by William Finn; book by Rachel Sheinkin; conceived by Rebecca Feldman; additional material by Jay Reiss; directed by Susanna Rinehart; music direction by Richard Masters. More information...
