2022 Edinburgh Fringe
Colin Hoult: The Death of Anna Mann
Colin Hoult has taken the consistently amazing Anna Mann character and set her within truly satisfying theatrical narrative. Huge amounts of this show has the audience howling with laughter.
Anna Mann is back! The acclaimed actress, singer and welder (gotta have a back up) returns after five long years to tell the incredible story of her life in the arts in this, her final hour. Visceral, real and achingly brave, Colin Hoult (After Life, Netflix) presents a hilarious meditation on life, death and literally everything in between. You will leave screaming 'f*** off I love it!' 'Funnier than almost all other shows at this year's Fringe' **** (Telegraph). 'Deliciously funny' **** (Times). **** (Scotsman). **** (Time Out).
