"Nominated for six Tony awards - including Best Musical!"

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is the inaugural production of the new No Strings Theatre Emerging Artists Program. This exciting musical--which comes to life with hilarious comic improvisation and audience participation--is a perfect first project for this group of emerging professional theatre artists, ages 21 to 30. The performers and creative team are producing the show with the support of a team of experienced industry mentors, including Kate Carver, Susan Cuthbert, William Shookhoff, and Denise Williams.

Join us in routing for these six young spellers with a take-no-prisoners ambition to compete against each other -- and members of the audience -- for the coveted title of "Champion"! Terrific music and a nail-biting plot - this is a show you would not want to miss!"
