5.0 out of 5 stars Hooked on Whoopi, August 13, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Whoopi Goldberg: Live on Broadway [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This was the first time I'd ever seen Whoopi Goldberg - it was on HBO years ago...

I will never forget the Jamaican woman and her raisin man!

If you like Whoopi's recent performances, you HAVE to see this one - it's fantastic.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Broadway show that made Whoopie great!, February 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Whoopi Goldberg: Live on Broadway [VHS] (VHS Tape)

A one-woman show taped live, Whoopie Goldberg shows us five different personalities, and five different viewpoints on everything. [Characters include: Fontaine, a little girl, a surfer chick, a crippled lady and a woman from Jamaica [mon].] Funny, outrageous and at some points touching, you will never get tired of watching this tape.

The only thing that would make her performance flawless is if the publisher would actually sell the tape to the public. HEY! Yes, I'm talking to you, publisher-person! I know you're out there somewhere.... Re-release this one. PLEASE!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The master at her best!!!!, July 10, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Whoopi Goldberg: Live on Broadway [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video is a must for every Whoopi Goldberg fan and a non-Whoopi fan! The characters she portrays are funny, memorable and captivating. Whoopi magically becomes another person right before your eyes, so don't blink! Fontaine speaks the truth, Surfer Girl makes you weep, The Jamacian woman teaches you respect for others, the Little Girl teaches you respect for yourself and Ms. Physically Challenged teaches you there's no such thing as can't.
