The 25Th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

An eclectic group of six tweenagers vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the students spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves a champion! At least the losers get a juice box. A riotous ride with audience participation, the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a delightful representation of comedic genius.
