Indoor show at 31 Centre Street, Bath ME
HOW THE SHOW WORKS:
Zach Sherwin ("Crazy Ex-Girlfriend," "Epic Rap Battles of History") hosts a panel of guest comedians as they solve an actual crossword puzzle live onstage, with everything displayed on a giant screen for the audience to follow along. Each time the solvers decipher a clue, Zach takes the show down a rabbit hole of comedy, music, wordplay, and/or trivia, all inspired by the answer words. You don't need any crossword expertise to be dazzled by this unique and joyful experience!
The Crossword Show was co-created and is co-produced by Zach Sherwin and Dominic Del Bene.
