The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee September 14, 2012

The regional Putnam County spelling bee becomes a place of acceptance for a group of socially awkward misfits in the throes of puberty in this nimble musical comedy. Winner of the 2005 Tony Award for Best Book of a Musical, this hilarious and warm-hearted tale of overachievers' angst celebrates the triumph of doing the best you can. It's the unlikeliest of hit musicals about the unlikeliest of heroes: a quirky but charming cast of outsiders for whom a spelling bee is the one place where they can stand out and fit in at the same time.
