Jess Robinson - Life Is Rosi : Grandma, Me and Our Diaries at 23

Jess Robinson is an award-winning impressionist, comedian, actor, singer and voice-over artist who is a regular on shows such as Dead Ringers, The Last Leg and Horrible Histories.
Jess recently discovered and translated the diaries of her German Jewish grandmother Rosi who was deported to Poland ahead of WW2. In doing so she was inspired to look back at her own (very cringeworthy!) diaries, the first of which was given to her by her grandmother when Jess was 11. Jess has set about comparing and contrasting her diaries at the age of 23 to those of her grandmother's; whilst of course there were major differences, Jess and Grandma Rosi both wrote about first love, shared funny dating stories, and spoke about awkward family dynamics.

Jess will be in conversation with comedian Rosie Holt.
