The Kenyon College Players present a production of "The 25th Annual Spelling Bee" Nov. 3 - 5 in the Harlene Marley Black Box Theater.
Please note that all performances are currently sold out; email kcplayers@kenyon.edu for waitlist information.
Six awkward spelling champions learn that winning (and losing) isn't everything. 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 a champion! At least the losers get a juice box.
