“The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee” is a one act musical
comedy with music and lyrics by William Finn and a book by Rachel
Sheinkin that opened on Broadway in 2005. It was nominated for 6 Tony
Awards winning 2, 3 Drama Desk Awards and won 7 awards when it
originally played off-Broadway.
It is a simple story of 6 middle school kids vying to be the champion
of the spelling bee, all with different backgrounds and anxieties, 3
adults, Jesus Christ (yes, you read that right) and 3-4 audience members
who are called up to compete and many of the cast playing various
roles.
There are two versions: one an adult only for people 16 and over which is called Adult Night At The Bee and basically “R” rated.
Would you be able to spell capybara? Acouchi? Titup? Syzygy?
Weltanschauung? Palaestra? Do you know what they mean? Can you use them
in a sentence?
There are over 20 songs dealing with all kinds of teenage subjects
such as sex, sexual, mental and physical abuse, love, competition, being
told you are dumb, etc.
I will be seeing it tonight so look for my review.
I Love You song
