SPELLING BEE is a musical comedy that follows six young people in the throes of puberty who learn that winning isn't everything and that losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser. This heartwarming show offers audience members the opportunity (strictly voluntary) to become part of the action as on-stage spellers.

SPELLING BEE features Matt Stanley, Carley Buckley, Adam Tarpey, Emily Cierpial, Emily Sheeran, Julia Blois, Jared Spies, Sam Bianchet-David, and Liam Dailey. SPELLING BEE is directed by Will Karvouniaris with music direction by Ana Morel and choreography by Kevin Patrick Martin.

The theater group will also perform THE GLASS MENAGERIE (February 27 and March 6) and LES MISERABLES (April 10-13). For additional information on sponsoring WHS Theater Arts, please contact Sandra Blois at SandraBlois@comcast.net or 781-246-2676.
