Wilton Playshop Auditions for ‘The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee’

The Wilton Playshop will hold auditions for The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee on Monday, Aug. 14, and Tuesday, Aug. 15 at 7 p.m. Callbacks will be held on Thursday, Aug. 17 at 7 p.m. Directed by Al Recchia with musical direction by Ben McCormack, the show will run Oct. 27-Nov. 11, 2023.

An eclectic group of six tweens (played by adults) 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 “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves a champion!
