The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

About the Show

In the Tony®-Award winning new musical comedy The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, six young people in the throes of puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, learn that winning isn’t everything and that losing doesn’t necessarily make you a loser. Spelling Bee has been hailed by The Wall Street Journal as "perfect in every possible way–that rarity of rarities, a super-smart musical that is also a bona fide crowd pleaser." This tuneful, offbeat, and at times heartwarming show offers audience members the opportunity (strictly voluntary) to become part of the action as on-stage spellers.

"It’s spelled W-O-N-D-E-R-F-U-L." –The Wall Street Journal"Irresistible, riotously funny, and remarkably ingenious–gold stars all around." –The New York Times
