Best known for her work on stage and one of Broadway’s most critically acclaimed performers, Bernadette just concluded a highly successful West End debut in the Cameron Mackintosh production of Old Friends, celebrating the life and work of Stephen Sondheim.

Last year, while in London, Bernadette presented West End Woofs, a sister organization to Broadway Barks. The event is the first of its kind in the UK which fostered a spirit of community among animal shelters and rescue groups.
The American Theater Wing honored her efforts and awarded her with the Isabelle Stevenson Tony Award, which recognizes an individual from the theatre community who has made a substantial contribution of volunteered time and effort on behalf of one or more humanitarian, social service, or charitable organizations, regardless of whether such organizations relate to the theatre.
