An eclectic group of six mid-pubescents vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. 

While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home life, the tweens spell their way through a series of [potentially made-up] words hoping to never hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life un-affirming “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. 

Six spellers enter; one speller leaves! At least the losers get a juice box.

Music and Lyrics by William Finn
Book by Rachel Sheinkin
Conceived by Rebecca Feldman
Additional Material by Jay Reiss

Directed by Richard Mazda  
Musical Direction by Dan Garmon
