Jerry Sadowitz Tickets
Sun, 27 March 2011 at 20:00
Tickets for Jerry Sadowitz live
at HMV Picture House in Edinburgh.
An aggressive stand-up, and accomplished close-up magician, Sadowitz made his name by bristling with anger, much of it vented at the right-on comedy circuit around him and the audiences who came to see it.Aside from the rage, Sadowitz has also provoked the ire of the comedy establishment by railing off streams of unapologetic racist jokes in his perpetual desire to shock liberal audiences.
Sadowitz's first love, though, remains his magic and he spends years out of the spotlight to devote himself to his art. Recently, he has re-emerged to perform both magic and typically savage stand-up shows.

Venue: HMV Picture House, 31 Lothian Road, Edinburgh EH1 2DJ
Re-opened in September 2008 as a 1500 capacity Live music space when Travis played the newly refurbished venue. The hmv Picture House has a musical history stretching back three decades and is once again bringing the best international acts to the Scottish capital with acts as diverse as Franz Ferdinand to Amadou and Mariam having graced its stage. During the seventies and eighties it was known as The Caley Palais and hosted gigs by some of the biggest name artists of its generation including New Order, The Smiths, Pink Floyd, Genesis, Orange Juice, Queen and AC/DC. Extensive restoration has revealed some of the building’s wonderful original architectural features including an ornate Art Deco proscenium arch stage, stonework façade and a huge stained glass window featuring a magnificent lion rampant.
