The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

Tuesday, April 8 − Sunday, April 13 • 2008
Bett's Broadway Series


 

ON THE CIVIC CENTER'S MAIN STAGE


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. The New York Times calls SPELLING BEE, “irresistible, riotously funny and remarkably ingenious – gold stars all around.”

Please note: This production is recommended for ages 13 and above.  Only children over age 5 will be allowed into the theater for this production.
