Sandra Bernhard at Leicester Square Theatre

Last night I had the pleasure of seeing Sandra Bernhard's 20th anniversary revival of her show, 'Without You I'm Nothing' at the Leicester Square Theatre. On the way downstairs to the theatre I passed Chrissie Hynde on the stairs who Sandra referred to later in the show.

Sandra was looking good and in fine form as she ripped into the show, a mix of 'today' and 'yesterday', referring to people on 'Britain's Got Talent' one minute and then seguing into a scene from 'Without You'. She was effortlessly leaping backwards and forwards in a well constructed, no holds barred verbal barrage of wit and words plus the odd song to break the flow or emphasise a point. Talking about Twitter and her celebrity friends, cupcakes, her girlfriend, her daughter, world events and London, it was all in there somewhere.

One of my favourite sequences was when Sandra confided in us about her affair with Brad Pitt - she was the rebound after Jennifer Aniston and before Angelina Jolie. It ended with Angelina self-harming on Sandra's bathroom floor and she left when Brad arrived, saying farewell forever. She then launched into a great version of Dolly Parton's 'Joline'. Sandra was, of course, heartbroken and still isn't over it. As if!

Sandra came on for an encore of a couple of songs dressed in the tightest leather trousers I've seen in a long while she gave us good rock chick lope back and forth across the stage, pacing and tossing her hair.

The show lasted for two hours and I'd have been quite happy for it to have continued for another hour or so. Sandra's been around for long enough that she has the experience, the stories, the mad life adventures, the celebrity connections ... everything really ... to go on for hours. She was on top form and gave excellent verbals. If you get the chance, go and see her - she's well worth a couple of hours of your life.

I went on with Chris and Dawn afterwards for a glass or two of chilled wine which is how I was so late getting home - and met Reynard. But that story's below...
