The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee at The Snug Theatre

H-I-L-A-R-I-T-Y set to hit The Snug stage with the Tony award winning musical The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. Ever wonder what’s going through the adolescent minds of those endearing, quirky Spelling Bee champs? Spelling Bee exposes their outrageous stories, with hilarious music by William Finn. Even audience members are invited to challenge the 6 competitors! The musical centers on a fictional spelling bee set in a geographically ambiguous Putnam Valley Middle School. Amid infectious songs and whip-smart lyrics, these nerdy and wordy kids learn that winning isn’t everything and that losing doesn’t necessarily make you a loser. The Wall Street Journal said, “Spelling Bee is a super-smart show that is also a bona fide crowd pleaser.”
