Whoopi Goldberg - Back to Broadway - The 20th Anniversary (2005)

"The groundbreaking comic returns to the Great White Way in this HBO special that has her revisiting some of her earlier characters, such as the belly-aching druggie Fontaine, as well as new avatars such as Lurleen, a Southern belle facing menopause." - IMDb

"She speaks what she believes to be the Truth-with-a-capital-T, yet never seems preachy or didactic. That--combined with her comic timing and sheer charisma--makes for two rich, rewarding evenings." - Rotten Tomatoes

"Whether it's loose-lipped Lurleen or dope-smoking Fontaine, Whoopi's alter egos let her go further – and be funnier – than other standup comedians might dare." - The Guardian

"Whoopi convincingly and effortlessly slips between Handicapped Lady's dream world and real world. She elevates herself from comedienne to artist in the track and teaches everyone who ever stands alone on stage something about disappearing and letting the character take over." - Allmusic
