Susie Dent - The Secret Lives Of Words
Richmond Theatre, 1 Little Green, Richmond TW9 1QH
Culture
UNTIL Sunday 23rd April
Take a journey into the curious, unexpected, and downright surreal origins of the words we use every day.
Alongside such forgotten stories you will hear Susie's selection of the funniest moments from her 30 years on Countdown and 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, as well as some startling results from eavesdropping on a group of waiters.
Each evening will include some of Susie's favourite words from the towns and regions she visits, and she'll be asking the audience for theirs. In fact, she'll be welcoming any questions about word origins, usage irritations, the dreaded impact of Americanization, and the very future of our language in her very own 'word surgery'.
