Sasha Nezlobin: I'm Fine

After selling out at the Edinburgh Fringe 2026 and across Europe, legendary stand-up Sasha Nezlobin comes to Bristol to let you know I'm Fine.... But is he?

Sasha Nezlobin left Russia in 2022 after speaking out against the war in Ukraine. Once one of Russia's biggest comedians and filmmakers, he left the country on the last direct flight from Moscow to Los Angeles and started over from scratch. Now he's rebuilding his career in the West while explaining to his daughter why they fly economy instead of business class.

In his critically acclaimed English-language debut show, I'm Fine, Sasha shares absurd, funny, and sometimes unbelievable stories about his new life.
