Our Season 1 Finale! Sam and Amanda spell their way through our very first season finale: The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. Our hosts have performed in this show together not once, but TWICE in 2011 and again professionally in 2015. The the two discuss William Finn’s contributions to musical theatre, the hilarious development of how to turn a spelling bee into a Broadway musical, and Sam’s ridiculous antics as he dived into the deep character analysis of Barfée. This week, we are pleased to highlight The Conscious Kid. As an education, research, and policy-based organization The Conscious Kid is dedicated to establishing equity and promoting positive racial identity development in youth.
