TUTS Artistic Director Dan Knechtges returns to The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee as both director and choreographer—bringing fresh energy to the musical comedy he originally choreographed on Broadway! Six eccentric spellers, quirky grown-ups and one unforgettable champion take center stage in a musical comedy bursting with heart and hilarity in this brand-new production. This fast-paced, laugh-out-loud show promises big laughs, bigger feels, and a spelling bee experience you won’t forget. PLUS, at every performance, four guest spellers will be called up to jump in, spell it out, and compete in the Bee – you never know who will shine and who will stumble! Will you qualify?
