I have heard recently that Woppi Goldberg is coming to the great white way. Is it something to start planing for and whats the appropiate age?

I dont know since her name is not Woppi. Its Whoppi 
If you google it, youll find plenty of info on the show. I believe the show itself is called Whoopi.

Beaverhausen - I'm remembering these five characters:
Fontaine
Valley Girl
Jamaican cleaning woman
Little girl
Physically challenged woman
And I thought it was one of the greatest things I've ever seen - an acting masterpiece.

Posted: 10/6/04 at 7:34pmThe fact that BOYFROMOZ has not corrected the title puzzles me, but everyone's responses to the mis-spelling has given me a good chuckle.

At the time, the show was called THE GOLDBERG VARIATIONS.
I love the Jamaican woman who eventually married the old Jewish man she calls "the old raisin".

Posted: 10/6/04 at 11:19pmJudging from the posters who liked the show, it's going on my list of "shows I might watch if I have money." Right along with...well, more shows than I'll be able to afford.

I love her. I was probably one of the few who found her television show hysterically funny.
I will definately come to see this.
