We’re mid-way through the run of The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling at the Victoria Theatre, and audiences are loving this hilarious musical. Here’s a small sample of the some of the comments we’ve heard:
“We laughed are heads off. What an AWESOME performance!”
“We had a great time and really enjoyed the show. It was hilarious and awesome.”
“I laughed so hard I cried!”
“I highly recommend that people go and see the performance. It will have you on the edge of your seat with laughter.”
“The ‘Bee’ is an absolutely winning show. Lots of fun from top to bottom, with the ‘Magic Foot’ bit one the best ever.”
And Kristi Leigh of Mix 107.7 had this to say about her stint as a “guest speller” on Sunday: “I had such a great time at the show. It was hilarious. The cast was wonderful! Please give them my thanks, and tell them I love the show!”
Have you seen The Bee? Let us know what you thought! If you haven’t seen it, it runs tonight through Sunday at the Victoria Theatre.

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee opened last night at the Victoria Theatre for a two week run, and you don’t want to miss this quirky, charming little musical. But don’t take our word for it … Terry Morris of the Dayton Daily News had this to say about the opening night performances: “If memory serves, the national tour was even better Tuesday, Feb. 17, on opening night at the Victoria Theatre than it was on Broadway.”

The wait is over! We just announced the 2009-2010 Miami Valley and Good Samaritan Hospitals Broadway Series, and it includes the Dayton Premiere of Broadway’s biggest blockbuster, WICKED!
The good news doesn’t end there – the spectacular lineup also includes the return of THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, plus the revival of A CHORUS LINE, along with ALL SHOOK UP, the new musical revue BROADWAY HOLIDAY and The Human Race Theatre Company’s all-new production of the Tony® and Pulitzer-winning play TALLEY’S FOLLY.
“This will be one of Victoria Theatre Association’s biggest and best seasons ever,” says Bill Bloebaum, Victoria Theatre Association Interim President & CEO. “With both Wicked and Phantom playing at the Schuster Center for three weeks, the potential economic impact for downtown Dayton and the region is considerable. When The Phantom of the Opera came to the Schuster Center in 2003, it brought more than 60,000 people downtown and nearly $4 million into Dayton’s economy.”
We are also pleased to announce a brand new partnership with series title sponsor Premier Health Partners for the Miami Valley and Good Samaritan Hospitals Broadway Series. This sponsorship agreement will play an important role in being able to bring the latest Broadway blockbusters to Dayton.
The season gets underway in December, and continues through June 2010:

Not to be left in the dust on the “Information Super-Highway”, Victoria Theatre is joining the social networking phenomenom.
With around 150 million users, Facebook is on the forefront of interpersonal communication. Not only can you network, catch up with old friends, and post photos; now you keep up to date with what is going on with your favorite celebrities, organizations, and products. By joining a group, Facebook has given users the ability to express themselves and feel like they are part of a ”community” of people like them. Becoming a “Fan” of a product, service, music group, or actor allows you to recieve updates on their latest projects and happenings. From Michael Phelps to Bruce Springsteen to bacon, you can become a “fan” of almost anything – including Victoria Theatre Association!
If you’re on Facebook, please check out the “fan” page at http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/pages/Dayton-OH/Victoria-Theatre-Association/37396528331 or become a member of the group at http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/group.php?gid=6043463053.

If Facebook isn’t your social networking site of choice, you can also be our “friend” on MySpace at www.myspace.com/victoriatheatre.
