The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
About
Funk Soul Productions proudly presents The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling BeeWinner of the Tony and the Drama Desk Awards for Best Book, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee follows an eclectic group of six mid-pubescents who vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life-unaffirming "ding" of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves a champion! At least the losers get a juice box. A riotous ride, complete with audience participation, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a delightful den of comedic genius.

Music & Lyrics by WILLIAM FINN | Book by RACHEL SHEINKIN | Conceived by REBECCA FELDMAN
