The Willows Theatre Company proudly presents the D-E-L-I-G-H-T-F-U-L musical comedy The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee at the Willows Cabaret at the Campbell Theatre in Martinez, August 17-September 13.

This Tony award-winning show is fast becoming a national favorite. Recently closing on Broadway after nearly 1,200 performances, this hilarious musical comedy celebrates the mania of competition as the funniest, most loveable, and uproariously nerdy contestants compete for the title. Music and Lyrics by William Finn, Book by Rachel Sheinkin. Conceived by Rebecca Feldman, with additional material by Jay Reiss. Directed by Marilyn Langbehn.

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee lines up all the usual suspects for the competition: the spunky overachiever; the ultra-pressured only child; the weirdo; the outcast; last year's winner; and the out-of-place runner-up. Through song and humor we delve into the lives of six children who all have one thing in common - a love of spelling. But anyway you spell it, this musical is one hilarious and heartwarming night of theater.

The cast includes Kenneth Arrington, Isaiah Boyd, Danny Cozart, Cindy Im, Anthony Jackson, Ashley Jarrett*, Casi Maggio, Vanessa Moyen, and Ray Wisely*.

This production is directed by Marilyn Langbehn with musical direction by Timothy Hanson and choreography by John Butterfield. The stage manager is Jon Marshall*.

* Member, Actors Equity Association
