Music and lyrics by William Finn, book by Rachel Sheinkin, conceived by Rebecca Feldman. The Tony and Drama Desk award-winning musical focuses on an eclectic group of mid-pubescents—joined by willing audience members—who 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, pout-inducing, life un-affirming “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake.
