   Comedian/political pundit/author/movie producer Bill Maher is coming to Sarasota.
   Maher will bring his unrestrained stand-up comedy to the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall on Oct.  26.
   Maher’s provocative comedy has brought him 32 Emmy nominations over the past 21 years for his shows "Politically Incorrect" and "Real Time."    
   In 2008, he produced, wrote and starred in "Reiglulous," an irreverent look at organized religion that became one of the most popular documentaries of all time. He's also written five best-selling books.
   But through it all he's continued to do stand-up comedy. He performs at least 50 dates a year across the country. 

   Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. this Friday,  June 13. They'll run you $35-$95. For information, call 941-953-3368 or go to VanWezel.org.
