Hill Country Community Theatre Presents Opening Weekend of THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE

The Hill Country Community Theatre has announced the opening weekend of "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee," from June 21 through July 7, 2024. Showtimes are Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 pm and Sundays at 2:00 pm.

Winner of the Tony and Drama Desk Awards for Best Book, "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee" has captivated audiences nationwide with its sharp wit and humor. The story follows an eclectic group of six mid-pubescents competing for the spelling championship of a lifetime. As they candidly share hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, these tweens spell their way through a series of potentially fabricated words while hoping to avoid the dreaded "ding" of the bell that signals a spelling error. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves a champion! At least the losers get a juice box.

Enjoy the opening night gala on June 21, featuring complimentary food, drinks, and live music. 

Please note that while "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee" is rated PG-13, it contains some mature content, including irreverent humor, some adult language, and talk of puberty. All of this is presented in good taste and adds to the show's charm.

  • Adult Tickets: $27 + applicable fees

  • Youth Tickets: $17 + applicable fees

Tickets can be purchased online at www.thehcct.org or by calling the box office at 830.798.8944.
