The Crossword Show with Zach Sherwin - EVENING

The Crossword Show returns to Planet Word for the D.C. debut of Puzzle #3. Host Zach Sherwin ("Epic Rap Battles of History," "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend") presides as a panel of guests solves an actual crossword puzzle live onstage, with everything displayed on a big screen so the audience 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, and everything ties together at the end for a grand finale that’s as satisfying as it is mind-blowing. You don’t need any crossword expertise to be dazzled by this joyful, brainy, one-of-a-kind experience! “Tons of fun.” -New York Times. "Nerdtastic." -Washington City Paper. “Jaw-dropping.” -SFGate.

**Special VIP experience add-on!** Join host Zach Sherwin from 5:45–6:15 PM for an exclusive pre-show hang jam-packed with fun, wordplay, and Crossword Show content you won't see anywhere else.
