Sandra Bernhard Brings QUICK SAND To Joe's Pub For Annual Holiday Performances

The inimitable Sandra Bernhard will return for her annual holiday shows at Joe's Pub at 425 Lafayette St. in Manhattan, performing her all new show Sandra Bernhard "QUICK SAND" December 26th through NY's Eve December 31st, with two shows each night.

She's always three steps ahead of the crowd. She has to be. She's Quick Sand. In these fast paced times a lady can't stop moving, you never know what you might encounter next in this fun house world we're living in. So Sandy takes control, this year she's bringing you a mélange of musings, music and whimsy, "never boring j'adoring" is her motto. Covering the waterfront of the outrageous, quotidian, and glamorous. Sandy fully realizes her land and brings it to you in vivid color and sound. Take a break with Sandy and don't get stuck in the mundane. Quick Sand.

Stop, look and listen to Sandra Bernhard along with the Sandyland Squad Band. Sandy will make it all better. Bernhard now debuts "QUICK SAND" at Joe's Pub in New York City, which she will then perform throughout 2018 around the country and overseas.

It's been quite a year for Sandra Bernhard, appearing as special guest on Ryan Murphy's "POSE" on FX Televsion, then guest starring on Murphy's "American Horror Story: Apocalypse" and announcing she has joined the cast of "POSE" for its upcoming second season. "POSE", which just made it onto TIME Magazine's list of the Top Ten shows of 2018, features Bernhard as brassy but caring Nurse Judy Katz, who works with H.I.V./AIDS patients.

She is also now enjoying the third year hosting her own hugely popular daily show Sandyland on SiriusXM Radio's Radio Andy channel (102) headed up by Andy Cohen, of which The Huffington Post wrote..... "It's hard to describe, much in the same way it's hard to put words to a brilliant jazz artist's improvisations. She simply took the conversation places that were at once and enlightening, provocative and intimate." Her strong opinions and unique perspective, along with her provocative, spontaneous conversations with a wide spectrum of guests from the worlds of entertainment and fashion have made Sandyland so successful.

Bernhard's previous show SANDRA MONICA BLVD: Coast to Coast brought in rave reviews, with Variety saying "What makes Bernhard's comedy so rare - whether she's philosophizing about Taylor Swift's squad or singing Dolly Parton's "Hard Candy Christmas" as imagined by Caitlyn Jenner - is that within every keenly observed pop-culture rant, there's an element of piercing truth. Bernhard remains as brash and brazen as she was in the 1970s".

While The Daily Beast proclaimed "The show makes one wonder what to make of Bernhard's distinctive place in the entertainment firmament. She is a show business stalwart of over three decades. Bernhard has evolved into a pop culture fixture, a jack-of-all-trades performer as actress, singer, comedian, and, more recently, a radio show host of SiriusXM's Sandyland." And, Broadway World wrote "Sandra Bernhard takes no prisoners and pulls no punches. She will set the place afire with her white-hot intelligence. She is authentic, unapologetically pissed, heartbroken, and of course, hilarious."

In addition, Bernhard recently did guest appearances on the new Hulu comedy series Difficult People, created by her friend Julie Klausner. She also returned to television with a recurring role on the hit CBS TV sitcom 2 Broke Girls and guest-starred on episodes of Fox TV's Brooklyn Nine-Nine as the character Gina's "eccentric" and "offbeat" mother, Darlene Linetti.

And, in 2014 guest-starred on ABC Family's original drama series, "Switched at Birth" in a recurring role as Teresa Lubarsky, a groovy art professor at a local college where Bay (Vanessa Marano) is taking classes. The Peabody Award-winning family drama returned for its third season in January, 2014. As most people are aware, from 1991-1996 she played Nancy Bartlett-the first openly gay character on a network sitcom-on Roseanne.

Dec. 26th-30th - shows at 7:30pm and 9:30pm. New Year's Eve, Dec. 31st - shows at 9pm and 11pm. For tickets please visit https://www.joespub.com/Tickets/Calendar/PlayDetailsCollection/Joes-Pub/2018/S/Sandra-Bernhard/. Also please visit www.sandrabernhard.com
