An instant sensation on Broadway, this crowd-pleasing production is the unlikeliest hit musical about the most improbable group of heroes: a charming cast of outsiders for whom a spelling bee is the one place where they can stand out, yet fit in, at the same time. 

Journey through the hallowed halls of middle school for a hilarious tale of overachievers' angst as six winsome adolescent outcasts vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. As these pint-sized word warriors navigate the English vocabulary, they learn important life lessons as they take their first timid steps towards adulthood. 

In one word, it's irresistable.  Drat!  I-R-R-E-S-I-S-T-I-B-L-E.
