About

Whoopi Goldberg on Tour

For all her achievements in theater, movies and television, Whoopi Goldberg has never lost her reverence for the connections she forges with audiences at her reliably outrageous stand-up performances.ย 

Her appearance in November, 2019 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City marked another milestone for a performer who first came to wider attention with Whoopi Goldberg, the one-woman stage show she brought to Broadway with the help of director Mike Nichols in 1984. The acclaim for her skills drew the notice of Steven Spielberg, who cast her in the lead role of The Color Purple. Goldberg's Academy Award nomination led to her successful run in a huge variety of dramas and comedies, including such smash hits as Ghost in 1990 and Sister Act two years later.

Her forays into television include her Emmy-winning run as executive producer and resident "center square" personality on her revival of the game show Hollywood Squares. Never afraid to share her views, Goldberg continues to elicit laughs and provoke thoughts as the moderator of ABC's The View.

In March of 2019, she appeared at New York's Beacon Theatre as cohost for Love Rocks NYC, the star-studded annual benefit for the nonprofit organization God's Love We Deliver.

Whoopi Goldberg Background

Born and raised in New York, Whoopi Goldberg caught the performing bug at an early age. Her first audiences were the relatives who gave Goldberg her distinctive nickname, comparing the aspiring comedian to a whoopee cushion.ย 

Her years studying comedy and theater in California and New York led to the development of the characters who filled her first stage hit, which was named The Spook Show before she and director Mike Nichols brought it to Broadway as Whoopi Goldberg in 1984. In 1985, she earned an Academy Award nomination for her first major screen role, in Steven Spielberg's The Color Purple. That launched a movie career that has included such beloved films as Ghost, Sister Act and The Lion King.

Among her television credits are her groundbreaking talk show The Whoopi Goldberg Show and the Emmy-nominated NBC sitcom Whoopi. Her Emmy-winning revival of Hollywood Squares ran from 1998 to 2004. In 2007, she joined Barbara Walters on ABC's The View as the show's new moderator.

One of America's most decorated performers, Goldberg is among the few to win an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony. Her other honors include two Golden Globes, a Drama Desk Award, two American Comedy Awards, the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor and a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame.

    Fabulous

    by Sharona on 4/29/19Hard Rock Live at The Event Center - Hollywood

    Whoopi was fabulous, came out told the audience she wasnโ€™t going to be political and wasnโ€™t going to sing from her movies. She kept us laughing the whole. I would definitely see her again and recommend her show for a fun night.

    The Q&A was torture!

    by Just saying on 4/29/19Hard Rock Live at The Event Center - Hollywood

    Her stand up comedy routine was great. Too much political stuff weaved in. Please drop this audience Q&A at the end. It was so boring, annoying, and painful that I couldn't seat through the whole thing.

    Hilarious!

    by L. N. on 4/29/19Hard Rock Live at The Event Center - Hollywood

    Whoopi was true to her promise- no politics and letting us into her personal world. Nothing sacred. Nothing held back. Loved the show. However, the lengthy Q&A didnโ€™t work. Very few Qโ€™s- mostly gushing and thanking Whoopi for inspiring their lives. Even Whoopi seemed impatient. An anticlimactic end to otherwise good show.

    Good show, but..

    by Mary Ann 913 on 4/29/19Hard Rock Live at The Event Center - Hollywood

    Whoppie was so funny. I have been a fan since Jumpin Jack Flash. The Q and A session at the end was terrible. Disorganized and it turned into an LGBTQ gab fest. I'm not prejudiced, I came to be entertained, not learn about the sexuality of the audience.

    Whoopi was amazing. Laugh out loud funny!!!

    by Chris A on 4/29/19Hard Rock Live at The Event Center - Hollywood

    Sooo good to see her on stage. Last time we saw her was on Broadway but this show was outstanding. She made us laugh so often and so hard. Wish she would come down south a little more often-we wouldn't miss a show. She hasn't missed a beat in her comedy-highly recommend!!!

    Whoopi was so funny

    by fgl on 4/29/19Hard Rock Live at The Event Center - Hollywood

    Whoopi was funny from the minute she came out onto the stage and danced along with the crowd. The laughs continued throughout her whole standup act. However, at the end of her performance she held a question and answer session. It was so poorly run, disorganized and boring. It took a lot of joy away from the feeling of all the laughter after her show. So instead of leaving thinking, wow that was so wonderful, it was tainted by A feeling of , good thatโ€™s over.

    Funny lady!

    by John on 4/29/19Hard Rock Live at The Event Center - Hollywood

    Whoopi Goldberg did a wonderful job of stand up comedy. It was about life, NOT Politics which was refreshing as well. The end of the show was brought down, however, by a poor decision to field way too many questions from the audience. She gave specific instructions about type of questions which they ignored... there was trouble getting microphones to people, and none of this segment added anything valuable to her performance... and unfortunately prompted a mass exit before the show was over which was also distracting! Another half hour of HER Wonderful Wit would have been MUCH more enjoyable!

    by Whoppiedo on 10/29/18NYCB Theatre at Westbury - Westbury

    Whoopi was terrific

    by HiHo9 on 10/29/18NYCB Theatre at Westbury - Westbury

    Whoopi put on a funny but also warm show. My only complaint was the sound system of NYCB. It really needs to be improved!

    Disappointed in Whoopi

    by DisappointedDoris on 8/2/18Morongo Casino - Cabazon

    I am not a prude, but we found Whoopi's story about making love to a younger man, and other crude jokes very disappointing. At one time she even said her 18 year old grandson was in the audience and then proceeded to tell another crude sex-related story. We thought she would be funny and topical so were sorely disappointed and would never see her again!

    Whoopi

    by Spiritxox on 6/19/18Sound Board at MotorCity Casino Hotel - Detroit

    Whoopi put on a wonderful show, as unique as she. Nice touch at the finish and she turned up the lights and took questions from the audience. She really got into the questions she allowed people to showcase talent, accepted jewelry to critique and signed and gave away her gym shoes to a guest in true nee. Thank you Whoopi for caring. You are one in a million.

    Sore feet

    by MAMSMW on 6/18/18Sound Board at MotorCity Casino Hotel - Detroit

    Woopey Goldberg was great. The question answer. Was a little expensive and the seating at motor city casino soundboard was way under par. I had to stand up for 90% of the show so I could see her over peoples heads. Sitting level with black. Otherwise I enjoyed the concert
