The competition is intense. The words are ridiculous. Let the spelling begin!
As a special treat to help celebrate our own 25th Anniversary, FRC is proud to present the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, a hilarious tale of overachievers’ angst chronicling the spelling championship of a lifetime.
Six young people in the throes of puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, find that the spelling bee is the place where they can both fit in and stand out.
The hilarious Tony Award winning music includes “I Speak Six Languages”, “My Unfortunate Erection”, and “The I Love You Song” and just goes to prove…
Life is Pandemonium
