Whoopi Goldberg is one of the most talented artists and performers you will ever have the opportunity to see perform live in our Magic City. Whoopi belongs to a very exclusive club that has won the Grammy (Whoopi Goldberg, 1985), the Academy Award (Ghost, 1991), the Golden Globe (The Color Purple, 1985 and Ghost, 1991), the Emmy (as host of AMC’s Beyond Tara: The Extraordinary Life of Hattie McDaniel, 2002 and a Daytime Emmy for The View in 2009), and a Tony (producer of Thoroughly Modern Millie, 2002). She has also starred in many films, TV shows and on Broadway. If that wasn’t enough, Whoopi became an author in 1992 and has gone on to publish four books and a children’s book series. She is also well known for her humanitarian efforts on behalf of children, the homeless, human rights, education, substance abuse and the battle against AIDS — plus being a Goodwill Ambassador to the United Nations.
