Behind the Scenes: Spelling Bee Director Interview
1 min read
The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee captures the awkward moments of six adolescents as they spell their way through a local competition. Director Peter Flynn (1776) is thrilled to return to Ford’s Theatre to direct this Tony-winning musical.
Flynn explains that the show’s spontaneity and genuineness is unique—four audience members are invited onstage to become a part of the spelling bee, thus making each show different. Watch this exclusive interview about the show The New York Times called “Irresistible! Riotously funny!”
