TheatreWorks New Milford will present the much loved musical, 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee by William Finn and Rachel Sheinkin. This show is directed by Kate Kovacs of New Milford, CT. Musical director is Brianna Mattingly of Seymour, CT and Choreography is by Sandra Hernandez of New Milford, CT.

This charming musical comedy tells the tale of six middle school “misfits” in Putnam County, NY finding themselves through one of the most competitive and brave journeys adolescents can embark on – a Spelling Bee!  This Tony Award-winning timeless and hilarious story about self-discovery proves that W-I-N-N-I-N-G (and losing) isn't everything.

The cast features Amy Lambertie of Danbury, Marcevan Costanzo of Naugatuck, CT, Tanya Willis and Jimmy Collins of New Milford,CT, Amayah (AJ) Zamboski of Great Barrington, MA, Bob Roda and Alyssa Schneider of Bethel, CT, and Rosalie Pena of Brookfield, CT.
