Scrabble-inspired Comedy Gig

Multi-award winning comedian and actor Ian Smith is performing two dates of a Scrabble-inspired show in London later this month, on 22nd and 23rd October.

The show is basically about trying to de-stress. His fiancée found playing Scrabble together helped her anxiety - so as a show of commitment, Ian entered Aylesbury Scrabble tournament completely out of his depth to try and show he could learn how to play and win a game. Ian had a great time in the process and hopes to attend more events in the future.

You can check out this board photo for an idea what to expect in the show and hopefully overlook the uneven distribution and a little poetic licence. Also, if you are interested in checking the show out, you can use the promo code SCRABBLE which will give you 50% off ticket prices.
