I took my family to see Encore Entertainment's production of The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee on Sunday afternoon and we enjoyed the show immensely. Director, Mario DAlimonte, Music Director, Ellen Kestenberg, and Choreographer, Larry Westlake have put together a strong ensemble cast to present a tight, enjoyable show.
Spelling Bee tells the story of a group of quirky kids trying to win a regional spelling bee. It's a cleverly written, funny show and, as part of the action, audience members (who volunteer) are called up on stage and participate in the bee. Much of the action is adlibbed and this talented cast pulls off both the impromptu and scripted work beautifully.
