AKEELAH AND THE BEEFebruary 7-23
Akeelah has a crazy passion for words: the more abstruse and labyrinthine, the better. But this gift is almost overwhelmed by the challenge of her daily life in a tough, Chicago neighborhood. Akeelah’s aptitude earns her a spot in the National Spelling Bee, which inspires the people in her neighborhood with her courage and tenacity.
Adapted for the stage by Cheryl L. West
Based on the original screenplay by Doug Atchison
Directed by Monét Noelle Marshall
