audition notice - THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE - Musical Theatre of Anthem - August 10 & 11


Musical Theatre of Anthem announces auditions for The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.

All youth between the ages of 17-19 will be cast for this production.

The 25 th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee features an eclectic group of six mid-pubescents vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to 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. A riotous ride, complete with audience participation, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a delightful den of comedic genius. The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a fast-paced crowd pleaser and an instant theatre patron favorite.
