Family Players of NENY is proud to announce that they will be holding
auditions for a February production of<br><b>The 25th Annual Putnam
County Spelling Bee</b><br><br>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.<br><br>The 25th Annual Putnam
County Spelling Bee is a hilarious tale of overachievers' angst
chronicling the experience of six adolescent outsiders vying for the
spelling championship of a lifetime. The show's Tony Award winning
creative team has created the unlikeliest of hit musicals about the
unlikeliest of heroes: a quirky yet charming cast of outsiders for
whom a spelling bee is the one place where they can stand out and fit
in at the same time.<br><br>Roles are available for 4 women and 5 men.
