25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
Presented by the Black and White Theatre Co.
July 29, 2010–July 31, 2010
8 pm
F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C! - That's the only way to spell this smash-hit musical comedy! The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is the story of how six young people in the throes of puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, learn that winning isn't everything and that losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser. This hilarious tale of overachievers' angst chronicles the experience of six adolescent outsiders vying for the spelling championship of a lifetime. The show's Tony Award-winning creative team has created the unlikeliest of heroes: a quirky yet 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. The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a roller coaster of music and fun.
Black and White Theatre Co. is a Pittsburgh based Theatre group primarily comprised of young artists who are dedicated to producing quality theatre for worthy causes. This year all proceeds will benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure to Breast Cancer.
