Abi Roberts returns to Hope Mill Theatre with her hit, sell out show direct from the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. ANGLICHANKA (Englishwoman in Russian) is an exhilarating 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. Including diary extracts, the consequences of drinking hardcore vodka, studying opera and using outdoor loos in -20 temperatures, we see how Russia has changed and what we need to know about Putin and the country described as ‘a riddle wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma’.
