Pinckney Players Presents THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE

By:

THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE at Dinner Theater at Whispering Pines Golf Club.

Show dates:
Feb 10, 11, 18 & 19 2017

Tickets are on sale now. Please go to the Box Office on our website for your tickets. www.pinckneyplayers.com

Directed by Stephanie Heslip
Music Director Christine Schoendorff
Assistant Director: Shannone Bondie

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 life, the tweens spell their way through a series of [potentially made-up] words hoping to never 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.

Due to some adult humor and content we are suggesting PG-13 for this show.

Because we have to put in numbers for food preparation, we will be closing ticket sales 4 days before each show. Please get your tickets before hand as no tickets will be sold at the door.
