Have you heard the buzz? The real, live NZ Vegemite Spelling Bee Final is coming to Circa Theatre!

"We now have our own Spellbound right in our front yard. It's pure drama!" - Roger Hall, Playwright and Spelling Bee Patron

Sixteen Year Nine finalists will compete in the nerve-racking final of the NZ Vegemite Spelling Bee, being held at its new venue, Circa Theatre.

It's a nail-biting event; one wrong letter... and the competitor is gone. The winning student gets a trip to Washington DC along with one other person to compete in the Olympics of Spelling, the Scripps National Spelling Bee, which attracts 11 million hopefuls in the heats annually.

Matthew Trundle, Classics Associate Professor at Victoria University and Associate Dean in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, debuts as the bee's brand new pronouncer.

Tickets are $10. Book tickets in advance (Circa Theatre ph 04 801-7992) or Door Sales.
