Ozark Actors Theatre

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

This musical is the delightful story of six fidgety adolescents attempting to correctly spell "pyrrhonism" while vying for the spelling championship of a lifetime.  Along the way the students learn that winning isn't everything and that losing doesn't necessarily make you a "loser".  This Tony Award-winning hit musical features infectious music and a charming cast of quirky characters sure to tickle your funny-bone.  Plus, you may even get a chance to join the cast on stage and spell some words yourself!
