Spelling Bee is, without a doubt, my favorite musical to open up this season!
It's not a huge production like Spamalot or DRS, but it's off-beat, witty, and sooooo clever.
I can't remember the last time I've laughed so hard at a show. It's very different from anything I've seen, the last time I was so wowed by a show was when I saw Avenue Q.
I highly recommend Spelling Bee! The cast is great and I won't be surprised if they pull a Q and walk off with Best Musical.
A lot of Ave Q's Tony success can be contributed to their very strong marketing campaign aimed at Tony voters. Bee would be wise to do the same type of campaign.

I am definitely going to try the lotto when I am in the city.

it's in previews now (though not changing much i assume)... there's not really a big marquee at circle in the square.
mirramar- can you tell me what the seating is like? are the "floor seats" of the theatre good seats or would i be better off getting tickets in the true orchestra? i want to have a good view.
