“Sandra Wood makes a stunning appearance
in the show as “Cher”. Sandra not only looks like Cher, but
her singing and mannerisms are so strikingly like Cher’s, you are
certain that you have just seen the superstar on stage.” (Atlantic
City Review)
Sandra has recently written and produced a full blown stage extravaganza
show entitled, “The Sandra Wood Farewell Tour”. No, she’s
not quitting the business, she is just saluting her counterpart’s
decision to stop performing live (Yeah, right!). Much like Cher’s
real show, the “Sandra Wood Farewell Tour” encompasses a
live band, dancers, and videos (however, no Cirque du Soleil acrobats…sorry!)
Sandra has been performing as a Cher impersonator for over 10 years.
She performs at major corporate events all over the United States and
appeared as Cher’s on-screen double in the music video ‘Walking
in Memphis’.
Sandra Wood was personally selected by Bette Milder to appear on stage
with her as “Cher” for the New Year’s Eve show of the
Divine Miss Millennium Tour in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay.
Sandra Wood has performed for some of the corporate giants including;
IBM, Mobile Oil, AT&T, Allstate Insurance, Dr. Pepper, Hewlett Packard,
Canon, Panasonic, Discover Card, MCI, Nissan, Xerox, Soloman Smith Barney,
Chevrolet, Lucent Technologies, Chrysler, and 3M.
Sandra's career as a CHER look-alike/impersonator has run the
gamut from special appearances to live production shows.
This statuesque performer and entertainer has made selective appearances
across the United States at major corporate events.
Clients and guests are stunned by Sandra's likeness to CHER. Typically,
she is approached
by guests who believe they have just met the celebrity.
Sandra, in character, has many times been mistaken for CHER. In 1989,
at the 61st Academy Awards, Sandra was hired by Fox Television to appear
at the awards. As she stepped from the limousine, fans in the bleachers
and on the street screamed, "CHER!". As a reviewer wrote about
Sandra's entrance, ".... and Cher whose timing was off even though
her clothes were on in the form of black Spandex pants with a waterfall
of fabric shooting like a geyser off her backside, had to make two tries,
too."
In addition to corporate events, Sandra as "CHER" has performed
in shows in such major locations as The Mirage in Las Vegas, The Flamingo
Hilton Hotel in Laughlin, NV, Universal Studios and The Hop in Fullerton,
CA.
Besides her talent as a look-alike/impersonator, Sandra has a diversified
background in entertainment. She was an original cast member of Donn
Arden's $10 million extravaganza 'Jubilee' at the MGM Grand Hotel in
Las Vegas. She performed in the nightclub revue 'Viva Las Vegas' in Acapulco,
Mexico, in Stephen Sondheim's light opera, 'Follies', at the Long Beach
Terrace Theater, and in the film Rocky IV, an MGM/United Artists release.
