Friday, July 31 at 7pm on D'yan's 92nd Birthday!
Joe's Pub
425 Lafayette Street (at Astor Place) in New York City
Way back in the 1960s, D’yan Forest was in Paris, enjoying experiences that Emily wouldn’t dare dream of. D’yan hung out at swingers’ parties and strip joints, she performed in drag clubs, she dated plenty of Parisian males and fell in love with Paris’s first-ever female bus driver. And now on her 92nd birthday, for the first time, she’s revealing it ALL, in her – totally unredacted – new comedy show, D’yan in Paris.

Comedienne and cabaret artist D'yan Forest (currently Guinness World Records Title Holder for Oldest Female Comedian in the World) has always been ahead of her time. In 1963 she moved to Paris as a young, innocent, recently divorced Bostonian looking to make it big in the Parisian cabaret scene. Immersing herself in the glitz, glamour, and scandalous nightlife of the era, the naive D’yan was transported from a sheltered suburban existence to a life filled with underground sex clubs and the swinger’s scene. A coming of age story like you have never seen it. At 88, the audacious D'yan is still going strong. Come celebrate life, love, and the city of Paris with her!
"A delightful romp. Forest is a bit of a scamp and her tales of naughty mischief are both entertaining and inspiring...she's a complete and total hoot." -- Theatre Is Easy, Best Bet
