Five Voices, One Legacy: The Whoopi Monologues Off-Broadway Triumph
TL;DR Summary
Five leading women reinterpret Whoopi Goldberg’s iconic monologues at Lincoln Center’s Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater, delivering a powerful, darkly humorous meditation on addiction, reproductive care, and racism as they travel from girlhood to womanhood; the material shines through the strong cast (notably Washington), though some directorial and design flourishes feel superfluous; running 1 hour 40 minutes with no intermission, through August 30, 2026.
