In The Bogus Woman, actress Krissi Bohn plays no less than 51 different characters, from an abused mother seeking asylum to an immigration official and a soldier.

Krissi takes on the mammoth challenge in Kay Adshead’s play, The Bogus Woman, for two nights at the Brewhouse. It tells the powerful story of asylum in modern Britain but goes behind the headlines of most newspaper.

The Bogus Woman begins with an unnamed young woman who flees from a country where she has been abused and seen her child, parents, husband and sister murdered. She arrives in Britain to seek asylum and a new life, but is detained then interrogated, humiliated and racially abused. Her dreams of safety are finally shattered on the cruel streets of London.

In the space of 80 minutes, Krissi transforms herself into soldiers, immigration officials, detention centre staff, fellow asylum seekers, do-gooders, lawyers and many others whom the young woman meets as her life spirals down into tragedy.
