Born in Brooklyn in 1933, Joan Rivers earned a degree in English literature and anthropology before finding her way to the stage in the late '50s. Cutting her teeth in small Greenwich Village comedy clubs and local theater productions, Rivers biting wit and fearless attitude soon landed her recurring roles on various talk shows, including The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.

FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"She is like a fine wine - gets better with age. My whole body hurts two days later from laughing so hard. I love that she is constantly updating her jokes to reflect current times, but she keeps some of the priceless classics."
"Just make sure you've emptied your bladder! Joan Rivers will definitely make you wet your pants! Non-stop jokes from start to finish! I was amazed at her energy, quick wit, and never-miss-a-beat delivery!"
"Inappropriately hilarious to be exact, but what else would you expect from Joan? She was so quick with her delivery and current in her material, this lady knows how to make people laugh."
I thought Joan Rivers was amazing and hilarious The Paramount was a great venue to see her in. My only complaint is she could have been on a little longer. I would definitely recommend her show as well as would go see her again.
Ms rivers says everything we all want to say except she gets away with it. Amazing material and she never tires. We went Friday night and told everyone to go Saturday night.she deserves the sold out performances......
Funny, outrageous, vulgar. How many 80 year old comics will lay on their backs on stage simulating the missionary position sex act while pretending to watch tv from between their legs? Well, you're going to see her do it. My only complaint was that sometimes you miss some of her jokes due to either the quickness of her delivery while pacing the stage...or it could have been the acoustics in the Parmount. The bottom line: Great Show.
Joan brought it - this woman has amazing energy and spirit - nothing was off limits - she was fabulous -
Joan Rivers is a has been, although I must admit that she still in damn good shape for her age!
Joan Rivers is so funny! She is brilliant! Love her to death, her act is hilarious!
85 and as feisty as ever. she was great, though the show was kind of short.
Joan Rivers preformed for 1 hour 45 minutes non-stop and I can not even stand that long. She was amazing I would not trade the experience with any other live venue I have ever attended. She was smashing and as she said " gave the audience their ticket price and then some. I can only hope she will return.
At times too racy and of course very high profanity. She's too old for this type show now.
This is the 8th time I have seen Joan in Biloxi and it was unbelievable! She kicked it up a notch this year. It was nonstop laughter! If you get the chance to see her, don't miss it. She is so funny and unique and is still a genuine good person when not on stage. I can't wait until next year! I call her my BFF because of her enthusiasm and strength we all wish we could have or be surrounded by, hoping it would rub off on us (but never does-ha!). Such a big heart for a small woman. Love you Joan! Don't miss her show!! Or you'll be sorry!!! Lol
The show was great! Joan was hilariously on point, as always, and the opening act was funny.
This show was out of this world. I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard for so long. Ms. Rivers was seriously funny, all night long.
Great show by the legendary Joan Rivers!!! At 80 years young she was making a packed house die of laughter! She performs with a 3 piece band and her timing was always spot on, and her jokes were current and truly funny. An outstanding performance by a true icon. Definitely do not miss if she performs nearby. Had a great time and definitely recommend!!!
Joan Rivers was fabulous!!!!! Really funny.Raunchy but funny.Poked fun of eyeryone.
Seen Many Comedians She will make you cry funny...It is to the vulgar side but that's Joan....I'd go again
Great comic before Joan came on and then Joan was fantastic.
Hilarious from start to finish. Very entertaining!
The whole show was hilarious! I'd definitely go see Joan Rivers again. My friends and I are still talking and laughing about the show..and its been about 5 days since the show!
Amazing energy and seemless dailogue. Never pauses or looks at cue cards....just a pure entertainer!
I took my best friend to the show for his birthday. We laughed so hard that I was literally gasping for air at times in the show. She is raunchy, but I loved it!
