The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
Music & Lyrics by: William Finn
Book by: Rachel Sheinkin
Directed by: Elizabeth Gardner
Six quirky middle-schoolers face off in a spelling competition that’s anything but ordinary. With zany antics, catchy tunes, and a dose of audience participation, this hilarious and heartfelt musical captures the awkward charm of adolescence, the pressure to succeed, and the joy of finding your people—even if you’re spelling “capybara” to get there.
