Description

Come to this unique, hot, and sophisticated breakfast with the Pussy from the USSR, a rambunctious Ukrainian gal. Following up on last year's show that Mumble Comedy gave four stars, the Pussy is coming to make you laugh hysterically, bask in the joys of outrageous comedy, and make you question things you thought you knew, bringing a "hole" new meaning to freedom of speech. This show combines comedy with hard-hitting truths about life in the USSR, and the Pussy's surreal adventures in Britain.

A bit of a confused show. It’s interesting (harrowing!) to hear about Helen’s experience in the USSR, but when she presents her thesis that the UK is headed in the direction of the USSR she doesn’t provide any supporting evidence, so that part of the show falls flat. Helen’s a natural performer, but it’s hard to engage with the content.
