THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE Comes to The Warner
The students of the Warner Theatre Center for Arts Education Performance Lab will present the fast-paced crowd pleaser, THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE, February 7-9, 2020 in the Nancy Marine Studio Theatre.
Winner of the Tony and the Drama Desk Awards for Best Book, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee has charmed audiences across the country with its effortless wit and humor. Featuring a fast-paced, wildly funny and touching book by Rachel Sheinkin and a truly fresh and vibrant score by William Finn, this bee is one unforgettable experience.
An eclectic group of six mid-pubescents vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life un-affirming "ding" of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves! At least the losers get a juice box.
Performances are February 7 and 8 at 8 pm and February 9 at 2 pm.
To purchase tickets, call the Warner Box Office at 860-489-7180 or visit warnertheatre.org.
