The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
The Un-Common Theatre Co. Young Adult Company is delighted to announce the second of their summer shows, the Broadway hit "25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee".
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.
"The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee" is a hilarious tale of overachievers' angst chronicling 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 hit musicals about 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. This show is funny, touching and moving and is recommended for ages 13 and over.
The cast of 12 talented and dedicated local young adults is directed by Christa Crewdson (Arlington, Ma) with Music Direction by Esther Zabinski (Fall River, Ma).

From Canton, Ma:Matthew Timmons (Vice Principal Douglas Panch)
From Johnston, R.I.:Jerald Kaplan (Carl Dad, Leaf''s Dad, Olive's Dad, Ensemble)
