From Russia with Lana
Love, life and the news from a Russian bride's perspective.
Ever wanted to know what the Russians think? What Russian women think? What Russian brides think?
Look no further. Svetlana: a dashing, obnoxious and politically incorrect Russian Bride will tell you all you do (and don't) wish to know about your world to date. And she's so convinced she's right, she may just convince you too!
Just don't mention the war...
Maroussia Vladi brings you a satire which shocked audiences at the MICF in 2023.
"It's not very funny to be Russian at the moment, but give it time. Comedy is Tragedy + Time." Svetlana
Maroussia, as Svetlana, enters into prohibited territory. But isn't this the very terrain where comedy thrives?
I dare you to spend one hour with Svetlana.

Presented by: Maroussia Vladi
Maroussia Vladi is a professionally trained actress. She began her Stand Up Comedy career in Paris where she attended Clown College. Upon graduating, Maroussia launched her own theatre company 'Keep It Moving Theatre' and debuted her original one woman show, 'In Search of Applause', off the West End in London. Maroussia's aim for comedy is to make it thought provoking and meaningful. In her latest one woman show, Maroussia hopes to acknowledge 'the elephant in the room' regarding the political climate in Russia at the moment and the nation's generally shocking reputation. Born in Moscow herself and from Russian heritage, Maroussia conjures the character of Svetlana to help illustrate the inner conflict, shame and turmoil that many Russian expats are finding themselves in today.
