The Guinness World Record Holder for Oldest Working Comedian, D’yan Forest, debuts her new show, D’yan in Paris: The Wild 1960s on Friday, July 31 at 7 PM at Joe’s Pub on her 92nd birthday. Forest has appeared on The Drew Barrymore Show and France’s Got Talent, and has performed around the globe, including in New York, Paris, London, Israel, Edinburgh, and Ethiopia. If there’s a stage, chances are she’s performed on it
In the 1960s, D’yan Forest lived in Paris and had adventures Emily would never dare imagine. She went to swingers’ parties and strip joints, performed in drag clubs, dated plenty of Parisian men, and fell in love with Paris’s first female bus driver. Now, on her 92nd birthday, she is revealing it all for the first time in her completely unredacted new comedy show, D’yan in Paris.
When she’s not onstage, Forest balances regular swims at Equinox on Greenwich Avenue and rounds of golf in Southampton with memorizing new jokes and songs—bringing the energy, curiosity, and joie de vivre that have kept her forever young.
Tickets are $36 and can be purchased here.
Joe’s Pub is located at 425 Lafayette Street, at Astor Place, NYC
