Comedian Wanda Sykes will appear on Saturday, September 17, 2011 at 8:00pm at Dena'ina Civic and Convention Center, Anchorage, AK.

The brash and brassy Wanda Sykes had a decade of standup comedy experience behind her when her big break came in 1997, the year Chris Rock asked her to sign on with his new HBO vehicle. She joined the writing team for The Chris Rock Show and stayed there for five years, winning the 1999 Emmy for Outstanding Writing for a Variety, Music or Comedy Special along the way. Becoming a field correspondent for HBO's Inside the NFL introduced her to sports fans while appearances in films like Pootie Tang and Down to Earth, both released in 2001, put her on the big screen. In 2003 she had her own hourlong special on Comedy Central, Tongue Untied, and starred in her own Fox network sitcom, Wanda at Large. 

Tickets are available at Ticketmaster.com, Sullivan Arena, or Fred Meyer ticket outlets. Another Northern Stage Production.

Dena'ina Civic and Convention Center is located at 600 W. Seventh Ave.Anchorage, AK 99501. For more information, please phone: (907) 263-2850
