Charleston is buzzing with excitement as comedy legend Sarah Silverman prepares to hit the stage at the Charleston Music Hall on November 7 for her highly anticipated Postmortem Tour. This U.S. tour promises to be a wild ride filled with laughs, catharsis, and a sprinkle of touching personal reflection. Those who manage to grab a ticket are in for a real treat!
Sarah Silverman has always been known for her boldness and willingness to tackle those tough topics that many might shy away from — think of all the quirky and hilarious moments she has shared from her life. Her autobiography, The Bedwetter, released in 2010, will give you a glimpse into her early childhood adventures. From growing up Jewish in New Hampshire to learning how to curse at just three years old, her experiences are both relatable and wildly funny.
But what’s an artist without the ability to evolve? Silverman took her autobiography and turned it into an off-Broadway musical in 2022. That’s right — the woman knows how to transform her life’s challenges into art that resonates with so many.
Silverman first made her mark on the comedy scene as a cast member on Saturday Night Live back in 1993, though her time there was short-lived, ending after just one season. Yet, like a true fighter, she used that experience to develop a tougher skin, a sentiment echoed by former writer Bob Odenkirk when he remarked that her signature style was simply too unique for the SNL mold.
What makes the Postmortem Tour special is Silverman’s ability to take personal experiences, especially those related to grief, and turn them into thoughtful yet entertaining anecdotes. “My last special, Someone You Love, was released right after my parents passed away,” she shared in an exclusive interview. “It was wild, but I found that there was a lot of comedy mixed in with the heartache.”
Indeed, Silverman has taken her personal losses and transformed them into laughter, which speaks volumes about her artistry. It turns out that often, the hardest experiences can lead to the most relatable humor — a sentiment she plans to explore during her Charleston show.
Every performance during her tour will be a chance to experiment and gather insights from the audience. Every gig is crucial in shaping the show, as Silverman puts it, “I need Charleston! Every city teaches me what works and what doesn’t.”
When asked if the saying “laughter is the best medicine” holds any truth, Silverman nods. “Definitely. It’s all about connection. I’m opening up and showing my baggage, and it’s strangely relatable.” Don’t be surprised if you leave the theater feeling a sense of catharsis, likely accompanied by a fresh outlook on those tough moments in life.
Silverman shares some invaluable advice for anyone looking to use their personal experiences in their art: “Trust your gut and don’t be afraid to fail.” She adds, “Making choices is key. Even if something doesn’t land, you learn and grow from it. You can’t find what works unless you try!”
So what can you expect from the evening? “Come for the emotionality and stay for the laughs,” Silverman jokes, preparing to mix humor with heartfelt moments. Beloved for her candidness, expect a night filled with joy, laughter, and maybe a touch of surprise. Get ready, Charleston!
Tickets for Sarah Silverman’s Postmortem Tour are available starting at $62. Don’t miss this unforgettable experience at the Charleston Music Hall on November 7, starting at 7 p.m. This is one evening you surely won’t want to miss!
