0 a woman who works in a theatre or cinema, whose job is to show people to their seats and to sell sweets and drinks
It has not been as sweeping as some people would like, but we cannot turn cinema usherettes into skilled mechanics overnight.
Even if we had to close down a few cinemas, there ought to be other even more important work for the usherettes now employed there.
There are little usherettes in the dark of the cinema who, indeed, might develop tuberculosis because of the conditions under which they work, which are, in fact, a predisposing cause.
However, an allusion was made to an usherette in the cinema: an usherette might cough and might have tuberculosis and therefore she should not work there.
Certainly, it would be well if the adolescents sitting in the rows in the front of the cinema could be protected from the coughing of the little usherette.
During the end credits she is a cinema usherette and is seen giving out instructions to the audience.
For example, usher, not usherette; comedian, not comedienne.
Examples include like "actor" and "actress"; "usher" and "usherette"; "comedian" and "comedienne".
