Summary

 The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is the heartfelt musical tale of six quirky middle schoolers who compete 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, and maybe, just maybe, redefine what it means to be a winner.
