**** Highly Recommended I was kind of surprised when I read that the Copley Theatre was doing "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee". It’s a sweet, silly, ultimately happy musical about a group of snarky fifth grade misfits competing for a trophy and the chance to go to the national Spelling Bee in Washington, D.C. Although it’s one of my favorites, it’s also a favorite show for community/high school theater groups – which means it’s been a tad overdone. That said, the Copley’s high-energy production was terrific – definitely out-spelling the competition! 4 Spotlights
