Watch the video below to hear what audience have to say about SPELLING BEE!

Good Company Players announces the Broadway hit musical, THE 25th ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE, onstage at the 2nd Space Theatre from April 22- August 8.  This smart, funny and honest Tony winning musical tells a hilarious and sometimes touching tale of six adolescent spellers vying for the spelling championship of a lifetime. At each performance, four audience volunteers will be selected to participate in the spelling bee and become part of the show!  With a cast of six unforgettable characters, everyone will find someone to root for in the competition.

A popular favorite from New York to San Francisco and in cities around the country, THE 25th ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE is a sure-fire Fresno hit.

Good Company Players’ production is directed by Brad Myers, assistant directed by Leslie Martin, vocal coached by Judith Dickison, and choreographed by Kaye Migaki.
