Description

A live comedy show in which a panel of guests solves an actual crossword puzzle onstage in front of an audience. ADMISSION TO THIS SHOW REQUIRES PROOF OF FULL VACCINATION AND ALL AUDIENCE MEMBERS MUST REMAIN MASKED DURING THE PERFORMANCE. -- This presentation of The Crossword Show will feature the debut of a BRAND-NEW puzzle, "Drop In Production." The Crossword Show is a live comedy show hosted by Zach Sherwin (“Crazy Ex-Girlfriend,” “Epic Rap Battles of History”) in which a panel of guests solves an actual crossword puzzle live onstage in front of an audience, with everything displayed on a giant screen so the crowd can follow along. Every time the solvers decipher a clue, Zach launches the show down a rabbit hole that’s somehow related to the answer word. There's an accompanying slide presentation, tons of comedy, wordplay, and pop-culture trivia along the way, and even a musical element: while the clues work like the ones in a normal crossword puzzle, they also happen to be rhyming hip-hop lyrics. You'll laugh. You'll be dazzled by the connections between the puzzle’s answer words and themes. And you ABSOLUTELY do not need to be a crossword enthusiast to be enthralled by this unique, joyful experience. “@zachsherwin’s crossword show brings all the best things together: comedy, crosswords, and hip hop.” - Natalie Portman Blonde Medicine was founded in 2018 to produce and distribute fun and original projects by fun and original people.
