The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
The 17th annual Bus Barn Stage Company season opens with The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling BeeWith music and lyrics by William Finn and book by Rachel Sheinkin, this hilarious and warm-hearted tale of overachievers’ angst celebrates the triumph of doing the best you can. Winner of the 2005 Tony Award for Best Book of a Musical, 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. Spelling Bee opens on September 6, 2012 and runs through October 6, 2012.
