With music and lyrics by William Finn, book by Rachel Sheinkin, conceived by Rebecca Feldman, with additional material by Jay Reiss, the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International.

The theatre program provides a supportive and collaborative atmosphere for its students. Students work within a creative ensemble to grow as artists. To learn more about University of Findlay concerts and upcoming arts events, visit the Visual and Performing Arts Events webpage.
