Since she first stepped on stage at the Comedy Store in the '70s, Sandra Bernhard has been challenging fans and critics with her outrageous humor, keen satire and rollicking stage shows. "Give the dame her due," writes the New York Times, "It's invigorating to be in the presence of a true original."
Bernhard, who writes and develops all of her own material, has produced numerous one-woman shows over the years, among them: "Without You I'm Nothing," "Excuses for Bad Behavior," " Giving 'Til It Hurts," "Hero Worship," "the Love Machine," and "Everything Bad and Beautiful,"
"A performer of stunning originality. Funny but foxy, super smart and slightly mad!" proclaimed WCBS. "Bernhard is a very funny woman by nature, a rocker by sheer determination and an actress you've seen in eclectic offerings," says the Washington Post.
Bernhard's one-woman Broadway show, "I'm Still Here … Damn It!," was hailed by the New York Times as "an angst driven, foul-mouthed poison-laced joy ride that banks and careens frenetically through the worlds of fashion, celebrity, rock, and religion. In her own voice, unfiltered, [Bernhard] is a living, breathing bonfire." The show, which initially ran for five months off Broadway, went on to play sold-out runs in Boston and San Francisco, and was filmed for an HBO special. Bernhard first earned film accolades in 1983 when she appeared in Martin Scorsese's "The King of Comedy." Other film work includes "Inside Monkey Zetterland," "Track 29," "Hudson Hawk," "Dinner Rush," and "Dare." And she is about to begin filming on two new projects.
