2018 Edinburgh Fringe
Olga Koch: Fight
Mixing stand-up and multimedia, Fight is a fantastic hour, both informative and packed with jokes. Catch her whilst you can, for Olga's is a unique voice surely destined for stardom.
In 2014, Olga Koch's father got stopped by authorities on the Russian border, which resulted in the most surreal year of her family's life. This year, the Amused Moose National New Comic Award finalist will try to dissect this real-life spy drama with nothing but a projector and 'a naturally comic mind' (Bruce Dessau). As heard on The Now Show.
