Comedians born in Sumy

Sumy is a city in northeastern Ukraine, close to the border with Russia, set on the Psel River and serving as the administrative centre of its surrounding region. It grew as a trading and industrial town and retains a pleasant historic core with green riverside parks. Comedy and satire enjoy wide popularity across Ukraine, and as touring circuits reach beyond the capital, regional cities like Sumy host live performances at their theatres and cultural centres.
