From the winning team who brought you 'Sweet Charity', Bruiser Theatre Company returns to the MAC with the hilarious hit musical comedy - 'Spelling Bee'.

You'll laugh out loud at this story of six young people, overseen by adults who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, vying to win the spelling championship of a lifetime. A quirky cast of outsiders, for whom the Bee is their chance to finally shine, learn that winning isn't everything and losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser.This Tony-award winning show proved a hit with critics and audiences alike on Broadway, praised for its charming cast, catchy numbers and hilarious script. A Bruiser and MAC co-production, you won't want to miss it - only at the MAC.
