Sam Rhodes & Maria Fedulova: A Married Couple Perform Their Edinburgh Previews

Sam Rhodes is a touring comedian with specials on BBC and Amazon Prime. Maria Fedulova is a BBC New Comedy Awards semi-finalist who also happens to be a Russian political refugee. This year, they are both taking their shows to Edinburgh and they need you to tell them what’s good or bad, as they’ve exhausted conversations about it whilst writing at home, in between discussions of who takes out the bins.

“Toy Coccoon” is Sam Rhodes’ musings on male infantilization in 2026 explored through comedy, puppetry, and thoughts on a life as a collector.
Maria Fedulova lives in London now but he great-grandmother is a canonized Russian orthodox saint. In her show “Literal Saint”, Maria explores the relative concept of “good” and what it means to be a “good person” and “good immigrant” in modern age.
