THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE
Tony Award Winner!

February 11-14
All seats: $32

This fresh, funny, upbeat musical with a big heart is a 2005 Tony Award winner with a score by Massachusetts native William Finn. We meet a quirky yet charming cast of outsiders for whom a spelling bee is the one place where they can stand out and fit in at the same time. These hilarious young people in the throes of puberty learn that winning isn’t everything and losing doesn’t necessarily make you a loser.

The word that best describes Spelling Bee is
W-O-N-D-E-R-F-U-L!
