Join us for our first youth performance of our 25th Anniversary Season!
Akeelah has a crazy passion for words: the more "abstruse" and "labyrinthine", the better. But this gift is almost overwhelmed by the challenge of her daily life in a tough, Chicago neighborhood. Akeelah’s aptitude earns her a spot in the National Spelling Bee, which inspires the people in her neighborhood with her courage and tenacity.
Does Akeelah learn to overcome these pressures or succumb?
