Revisting the Bee

Well I saw Spelling Bee for the fifth time today for free with my school. The new cast is great, espeically the Rona Lisa Peretti-she is just AMAZING!!! It was all invited school groups today and they said it was the loudest audience theyd ever had and that their throats hurt from screaming. When Chip was throwing the candy during his special song, you couldn;t hear any of the song, people in my school were not happy about that. Anyway the boy who got the word "COW" spelled it wrong, has anyone ever gone to the show and seen that word mis-spelled. It didn't flow when he gets kicked out and there playing the PANDOMONIUM music and then they have to sing the goodbye song and then go into singing how that word is so easy. Just Wondering.

I saw a girl misspell "cow," but she was lame and I think she just wanted to get off the stage.

I saw it on Broadway last August and a boy misspelled 'cow.' Everyone did the "awwww" thing.

I saw it when a little girl misspelled "cow". It was really sad actually, and I think that was the first time that had happened, because Chip didn't know what to do. He started singing Pandemonium but the piano cut out so he just sang the first "My oh my" a cappella, and then the rest of the cast and the piano eventually joined in. Very awkward, but hilarious.

I saw Cow misspelled my second time, but it's very rare. Mexicans, on the other hand, I have never seen spelled wrong.
