The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

You are invited to the Oates Theater for the musical spectacular The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee!

Alongside the Judges and Announcer we follow along as 6 spellers from around the county compete for the honor of becoming the 25th Putnam County Spelling Bee Champion. 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 "ding" of the bell that signals a spelling mistake.

Who will be our champion and who will sent off stage with a pat on the back and a juice box?

Join us to find out and maybe you'll even have the chance to put your spelling skills to the test!
