We kick off our 43rd season with Broadway’s more recent hits The 25th Anniversary Putnam County Spelling Bee running June 10 – 26, 2010.   This hilarious musical tale of overachievers’ angst chronicles the experience of six adolescents vying for the spelling championship of a lifetime.  Overseen by adults who just barely managed to escape childhood themselves, see who learns that winning isn’t everything and that losing doesn’t necessarily make you a loser.
