Margaret Anne, a young girl who has never won anything in her life, suddenly finds herself as a participant in the upcoming "Miss Spell Contest" comprised of two spelling bees, 2 Bee and Not 2 Bee. The competition takes Margaret Anne (played by Taia Rasmussen) to the Land of Spell where she is introduced to the queen (played by Elizabeth Kaumeyer) and various characters who help her with the basic rules of spelling, along with conquering her self-doubt. Cast members include James Beutler, Caleigh Callighan, Josephine Hayes, Logan Hicks, Hailey Hood, Marisa Humphrey, Elizabeth Kaumeyer, Kayle Kurtz, Imogene Mott, Taia Rasmussen, Bellarae Roach, Spencer Tobler, Devon Truitt, Amaya Tunstill, and Gwyneth Zander, with Madilyn Bahr, Abby Meents, Zoey Jantz, Piper Loeks, and Liliana Mott on crew.
