The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee makes its way to the Lynn Theatre at John Tyler Community College's Midlothian Campus! 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.

Performances are April 6th-8th and April 13th-15th
Friday and Saturday at 7pm and Sunday at 2pm.
