Teams sought for ‘Spell Check’ at Latchis

BRATTLEBORO — Latchis Arts is looking for teams of spellers to mount the stage on April 5 for Latchis Arts' popular game show “Spell Check! A Spelling Bee for Grown Ups” at the Latchis Theatre.

Each team has three spellers, and three teams appear on stage at a time.

Master of Ceremonies, author and humorist Tom Bodett of “Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me” fame will weave the spelling words into fanciful tales, while lawyer/local radio host/Beekeeper Jim Maxwell will use his radio voice to pronounce and define.

Author Archer Mayor makes his triumphant return to pass judgment on each team's spelling effort, with the able assistance of Little Bee Lucy Flynn and the bicycle horn. Alfred Hughes, Jr. will again announce the rounds.

It is a rollicking good time of spelling frenzy. Many teams come every year to strut their spelling stuff on the main stage of the glorious Latchis Theatre.
