25th Annual Putname County Spelling Bee

Lake Worth Playhouse Presents
25th Annual Putname County Spelling Bee
Music & Lyrics by Rachel Sheinkin
Book by William Finn
Jan 19 – Feb 5

Six young people in the throes of puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, learn that winning isn't everything and that losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser.

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a hilarious tale of overachievers' angst chronicling the experience of six adolescent outsiders vying for the spelling championship of a lifetime. The show's Tony Award winning creative team has created the unlikeliest of hit musicals abou the unlikeliest of heroes: a quirky yet charming cast of outsiders for whom a spelling bee is the one place where they can stand out and fit in at the same time.

What I've been doing or listening to whether it's theatre related, for a sound design or personal

Just got two shows up and running, "Sylvia" for the Boca Raton Theatre Guild and "The All American Genderf*ck Cabaret" for Thinking Cap Theatre. Both are great shows and I encourage you to see them. The "Cabaret" one I am running so say hi to the guy in the booth if you come by.

After a very succesful run with Kim Ehly's "Baby GirL", it's onward to the first production by Island City Stage, co-produced by Empire Stage. "The Twentieth Century Way" by Tom Jacobson. Nice mix of Jazz music with some 1910-1920 thrown in.

Get your geek on this Memorial Day weekend listening to live streaming content from "PHOENIX COMICON 2012" over at VTWProductions.com. If you can't listen live then download and listen to all of the panels (Cut Down Into Podcast Size Segments By Me) at your convenience, or subscribe to "Alpha Geek Radio" on iTunes. It couldn't be easier!

Listining to an Alternative Indie Love Song station from Pandora Radio. Getting ready for Love Burns: 2 one-act romantic comedies for Thinking Cap Theatre at Empire Stage. Check them out!

Working on "Last Call" with Michael Leeds and Terri Girvin. Going to be a fabulos one women show presented at Empire Stage. Look under the tag "SPECIAL DEALS" for a discount on tickets.
