Broadway's Spelling Bee to Offer a May 6 Adults Only Show

The cast of Broadway's The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee will present an Adults Only performance on Sunday, May 6 at 7:30pm. 

"Due to the overwhelming success of last year's adult nights and the fact that the students of Putnam County can no longer be kept g-rated, the show will offer  a much anticipated and all-risqué version of the Tony Award-winning musical. Leave your children at home with the sitter and come get an education of your own from the kids who know how to spell 'D-I-R-T-Y,'" state press materials.

"Spelling Bee is the Tony Award-winning musical with music and lyrics by William Finn, book by Rachel Sheinkin, conceived by Rebecca Feldman and directed by James Lapine.  A hilariously hip musical  comedy, Spelling Bee features six young people in the throes of puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, learning that winning isn't everything and that losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser."

Tickets are available through Telecharge, (212) 239-6200 or www.telecharge.com, or by visiting the Circle in the Square Theatre box office (1633 Broadway).  Tickets prices are $95.00 and $50.00.  Premium seating is available.  Tickets for the adults only nights are on-sale now at all regular prices.  Due to the mature material and politically incorrect humor, no one under the age 16 will be admitted for Adults Only night.
