The San Francisco cast of The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, playing at the Post Street Theatre until Sept. 3, was the final performance at the main stage of San Francisco's 36th Annual LGBT Pride Celebration Saturday evening.

The crowd was treated to the title song as well as "Why We Like Spelling," and an appearance by a special guest speller.

Guest speller Donna Sachet correctly spelled "Xanadu," but was given the bell on "lysergic acid diethylamide."


"You're the best lookin' babe we've had all day." Comfort Counselor Mitch Mahoney (James Monroe Ingleart) bestows a juice box on Sachet after her mistake.
