Event Navigation
The Roleystone Theatre’s season of the musical The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee promises to be a funny, heart warming and interactive one and a half hours of theatre!
An eclectic group of six mid-pubescents 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 un-affirming ‘ding’ of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves! 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. The small cast and unit set make this a perfect option for high schools or community theatre groups. The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a fast paced crowd pleaser and an instant favourite for theatre patrons.
