The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee - Opening Weekend

The River City Community Players announces the opening weekend for, "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee," with music and lyrics by William Finn and book by Rachel Sheinkin.

Opening night performance is Feb 22 at 8 p.m., with additional performances on Feb 23, Mar 1, 2, 8 and 9 at 8 p.m., and a Mar 3 2 p.m., matinee at the Leavenworth Performing Arts Center, 500 Delaware, Leavenworth, KS.

Directed by MB Hurst.

Six young people in the throes of puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, learn that winning isn't everything and that losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser. The show is a hilarious tale of overachievers' angst chronicling the experience of six adolescent outsiders vying for the spelling championship of a lifetime and creates the unlikeliest of heroes for whom a spelling bee is the one place where they can stand out and fit in at the same time.

Featuring Kristen Altoro, Branson Bliss, Sean Connors, Nickoma Mankewa, Raphael Tate, Guy Gardner, Jenni Wilson, Breanna Danielle and JoAnna Bledsoe.

Ticket prices are: Adults $10; 12 & under $5; 62+ & groups 10+ $8.

Leavenworth Performing Arts Center, 500 Delaware St, (913) 651-0027, www.rccplv.com (PG 13 for language.)
