Soirée: Abi Roberts: Anglichanka

Anglichanka (Englishwoman in Russian) is an exhilarating new comedy show about living in the former Soviet Union in the 90s and returning after 18 years as the first UK comic to perform comedy in English and Russian. See what the consequences are of drinking hardcore vodka, studying opera and using outdoor loos in -20 temperatures, what we need to know about gay rights and censorship in post-Soviet Russia and what we need to know about Putin and the country described as ‘a riddle wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma’.
