“WORDS” 

And How They Get That Way!

A panel discussion with three of the top lexicographers in the country

Friday, June 9th Immediately following the 8pm performance of Webster’s Bitch by Jacqueline Bircher. (Approximately 9:45pm) Free & open to the public

When their Editor-in-Chief gets caught using some unexpected profanity, the employees of Webster’s Dictionary find themselves at the center of an internet uprising over gender and obscenity in the age of social media. As office politics collide with ambition, morality, and lexicography, the future of the English language hangs in the balance. A play about vulgar words and the people who define them.
