HOW THE SHOW WORKS:

Host Zach Sherwin presides as two guest comedians solve a crossword puzzle live onstage, with everything displayed on a big screen so you can follow along. As the solvers decipher the clues, Zach takes the show down rabbit holes of comedy, music, wordplay and trivia, all inspired by the answer words. Everything ties together at the end for a grand finale that’s as satisfying as it is mind-blowing. Whether you’re a daily solver or have never attempted a crossword puzzle in your life, you’ll be dazzled by this brainy, joyful, one-of-a-kind comedy wordplay extravaganza!

Or, if you prefer your “HOW THE SHOW WORKS” sections in lyrical form:

"Jaw-dropping.” -SFGate

"If you’re looking for a funny show that isn’t your typical stand-up or improv and really want to use your noggin, [The Crossword Show] is tailor-made for your nerdtastic taste." -Washington City Paper
