Follow an eclectic group of six tweens on their hilarious musical journey to realize their dreams of becoming the spelling bee champion. Winner of the Tony and the Drama Desk Awards for Best Book, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee has charmed audiences across the country with its effortless wit and humor. Watch as the nerdy and the wordy struggle to become the best, while dealing with the woes of puberty, and ultimately learn that winning isn't everything and that losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser. This bee is one unforgettable experience, with a fast-paced, wildly funny and touching book by Rachel Sheinkin and a truly fresh and vibrant score by William Finn.
