Theatre III of Acton Presents The 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE

By:

You are invited to join six young people in the throes of puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, as they learn that winning isn't everything (and that losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser). Together with celebrity guests and audience volunteers, this hilarious tale of overachievers is quirky yet charming, and one of the unlikeliest hit musicals of the decade!

Celebrity Spellers Announced!
