Description
No musical exemplifies the humor and poignancy of adolescence better than The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. This unlikely hit musical comedy chronicles the experiences of six adolescent outsiders vying for the spelling championship of a lifetime; and grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves.Winner of the 2005 Tony Award for Best Book of a Musical, this hilarious and warmhearted tale of overachievers’ angst celebrates the triumph of doing the best you can. Honest and heartfelt songs such as “I’m Not That Smart,” “I Speak Six Languages,” and “My Friend, The Dictionary”, remind these tenacious tweens that winning isn’t everything and losing doesn’t necessarily make you a loser! Complete with audience participation and improvised moments, no performance of this sidesplitting musical is ever the same!
