Moving to Scottsdale, Arizona in her early years, her initial comedy stage work in the 1970s was formulated around her “fish out of water” existence growing up as a “Jewess” amongst a sea of “blonde WASPs”.

Her big break came in 1983 when she was cast by Martin Scorsese to star as stalker and kidnapper Masha in the film The King of Comedy for which she won the National Society of Film Critics Award for Best Supporting Actress.

She first gained attention in the late 1970s with her stand-up comedy where she often bitterly critiques celebrity culture and political figures.

“An Evening with Sandra Bernhard” includes comedy, commentary and music, and Bernhard appears with musical director/pianist, Mitch Kaplan and guitarist Pam Adams.

She demonstrated real hutzpah on camera after Martin Scorsese cast her as Masha, who loose cannon who stalks and covets a talk show host, in his film The King of Comedy starring Robert De Niro and Jerry Lewis.

Tickets, which range from $45 to $60, are available at boxofficetickets.com or at 494-TIXS.

SANDRA BERNHARD: EVERYTHING BAD AND BEAUTIFUL is an extravaganza of Sandras brand of wild comedy, reckless rock n roll and her trademark social commentary.

She appeared in 33 episodes between 1991 and 1997, and was one of the first actresses to portray an openly lesbian recurring character on American television.

Unmarried with a young daughter, Sandra is openly bisexual and currently living with a longtime companion, writer and PR executive Sara Switzer.

Developed a strong friendship with Madonna during the 1990s, and the two were frequently seen together in public.

She, along with other up-and-coming comics such as Robin Williams and Marsha Warfield, was cast as a regular player on “The Richard Pryor Show” , a musical variety show.

Around this time in her career, Bernhard developed a very close friendship with Madonna, and the two were frequently seen together in public.

She made her publishing debut in 1987 with “Confessions of a Pretty Lady” and followed that up with “Love, Love, and Love.”

She was born in Flint, Michigan, the daughter of Jeanette and Jerome Bernhard.

It was a fearless attempt to show that life must continue and the show must go on.

Sandra’ brand new album, “Everything Bad & Beautiful” taken from her hit off-broadway show of the same name, is going to be officially released on June 5th!

After graduating from Saguaro High School in Scottsdale, Arizona, she went to live on a kibbutz in Israel.

Bernhard’s last show, “Hero Worship,” featured a five-piece band and was a post-September 11th tribute to Bernhard’s commitment to irony—that it, too, has survived September 11th.
