Whoopi Goldberg - Direct from Broadway (1985)


"Whoopi Goldberg in her original one-woman show." - IMDb

"Shown on HBO six months before The Color Purple premiered, this special was her first major introduction to wider audience; seen now, it's a great reminder of what an energetic stage performer and comedienne she was before she started adding actress, awards-show emcee and talk-show dynamo to her resumé." - Rolling Stone

"In her one-woman stage show, Whoopi Goldberg, the star of the upcoming movie The Color Purple, proves that she is a young woman packed with talent. Whoopi is well worth seeing, but her show isn't as impressive as she is." - People

"Funny, challenging, and occasionally heartbreaking, it plays today as a reminder of the talent being wasted every day on The View." - Flavorwire
