Akeelah and The Bee Show Tickets

Enjoy a heartwarming story and some quality family time by purchasing Akeelah and The Bee tickets. Playwright Cheryl L. West adapted the 2006 hit movie Akeelah and the Bee into a stage production that is just as powerful and inspiring as the original.

The play is patterned after the movie, and the story follows Akeelah, an 11-year-old, African American girl in the Chicago projects struggling against all odds to succeed. Driven by a burning passion for words and the desire to be the best, she sets her sights on winning the Scripps National Spelling Bee. Akeelah finds a friend and teacher in the reticent Dr. Larabee, who, despite his reluctance, develops a deep bond with his pupil and does his best to help her succeed. On her journey, Akeelah has to battle her own inner doubts and her mother’s concerns to follow her heart. When the time comes to leave for the national bee, the whole community is behind her.

People who love an underdog tale will enjoy this feel-good story that is perfect for the whole family. Grab some extra Akeelah and The Bee tickets for your kids and enjoy some bonding time. They may even be inspired to try a spelling bee themselves. At the very least, this performance will spark your passion for life and following your dreams.
