About The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

Sorry, but this event has been and gone!

Winner of the Tony and the Drama Desk Awards for Best Book, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee has charmed audiences the world over with its effortless wit and humour. Featuring a fast-paced wildly funny and touching book by Rachel Sheinkin and a truly fresh and vibrant score by William Finn, this bee is one unforgettable experience.

An eclectic group of six mid-pubescent vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home life, the tweens spell their way through a series of words hoping to never hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life un-affirming “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves! At least the losers get a juice box.

Pantheon is a Registered Charity producing, performing & promoting the arts, through musicals, comedies & drama, in Glasgow & Mid West of Scotland since 1926.

While we take every opportunity to ensure the details for The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee are accurate, we always advise that you contact the event organiser before setting out for the event to avoid disapointment.
