At the opening night of The 25th Annual Putnum County Spelling Bee at the Hayes Theatre Sydney, I spoke to Director (and actor) Dash Kruck after the show. Hear more about his vision for the musical that includes parallels to the Australian schooling system; symbolism of the character Rona (played by Katrina Retallick) and other theatrical devices to make this version of the beloved musical different for audiences. We also discuss his career and other works.
