Full Bio

Sandra Tsing Loh is a writer and performer whose solo theatre shows include “Aliens in America” and “Bad Sex With Bud Kemp” (both off-Broadway at Second Stage Theatre), the original “Sugar Plum Fairy” (Geffen Playhouse, Seattle Repertory Theatre), “I Worry” (The Kennedy Center, Actors Theatre of Louisville) and The Bitch Is Back (Broad Stage). Her bestselling New York Times Notable Book, Mother on Fire, was inspired by her hit solo show in 2005, during which time Variety named her one of America’s 50 most influential comedians.

Her memoir, The Madwoman in the Volvo: My Year of Raging Hormones, was selected as one of The New York Times’ 100 Most Notable Books; it was inspired by her Best American Essay in The Atlantic, for which she is a contributing editor. The stage adaptation of “Madwoman…” premiered at South Coast Repertory in January 2016 and enjoyed subsequent runs at the Pasadena Playhouse and Berkeley Repertory Theatre.  A revamped version of her Christmas show “Sugar Plum Fairy” receives its world premiere at South Coast Repertory in December 2017.

“Madwoman…” has since been optioned for TV by Paramount Television and Anonymous Content. Loh has been a regular commentator on NPR’s “Morning Edition,” and on Public Radio International’s “This American Life” and “Marketplace.” Her daily radio minute, “The Loh Down on Science,” is heard locally on KPCC (89.3 FM) and is syndicated over a 150 public radio statios, as well as on Armed Forces Radio. It is produced and distributed by her non-profit production company LDOS Media Lab, Inc.

Loh is an adjunct professor in drama and science communication at the University of California, Irvine where she teaches solo performance storytelling to undergraduates and science communication to graduate research scientists in the Schools of Physical Sciences and Biological Sciences.
