In her debut show Schaefer employs her vulnerable, whip-smart comedy style to confront her complicated relationship with Jesus, America, and death. In the age of Trump, Sara can't separate the deeply personal from the absurdly political and mines her own life to find answers. An endearing show where even the darkest moments are laced with whimsy. Sara Schaefer is an Emmy award-winning comedian who hosted her own talk show, Nikki & Sara Live on MTV, has appeared on Comedy Central, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and was named one of Huffington Post's Favourite Female Comedians.
