Sandra Bernhard promises plenty of "tricks and treats" as she storms the Steppenwolf stage for A Sandra Bernard Halloween. Audience members are invited to attend in costume as the outrageous and outspoken star brings her band The Rebellious Jezebels for an unforgettable night of music, wit and social commentary. "An angst driven, foul-mouthed, poison-laced joy ride through the worlds of fashion, celebrity, rock and religion… Bernhard is a living, breathing bonfire" (The New York Times).
