Sandra Bernhard: Everything Bad and Beautiful to Play Off-B'way
Sandra Bernhard: Everything Bad and Beautiful is a mix of Bernhard's comedy, rock 'n' roll and distinct social commentary. In March of 2005 it premiered at the Silent Movie Theatre in Los Angeles. In his review of that mounting, Variety's Steven Mirkin wrote: "In Sandra Bernhard's wickedly funny and surprising heartfelt new show, Everything Bad and Beautiful comedienne and thesp… manages to bring fresh perspective to the subjects of celebrity and motherhood and celebrity motherhood… It's not everyone who could segue from neighbors arguing over a fence in Yiddish to 'I got a call from Bob Dylan' and get away with it… You can't take your eyes off of her--there's a mad twinkle to her eyes, and her voice, with its wide adolescent vowels and acidic, disputatious delivery, clues you in that she's liable to say the most outrageous thoughts that come to her mind. She doesn't disappoint."
