Cristela Alonzo: Lower Classy (2017)

Genre: Comedy
Directed by: Marcus Raboy
Cast: Cristela Alonzo
Running time: 66 minutes



In her latest comedy special, available on Netflix, stand-up comedian, actress and writer Cristela Alonzo takes the stage in San Antonio, Texas, and delivers a solid set of very effective comedy. She discusses the American election (of course), Trump’s wall, Mexican stereotypes, The New Kids on the Block, her family and many other topics.

It was particularly interesting to hear the point of view of a Hispanic woman though comedy. While she’s not overly crude, Alonzo pulls no punches and tells things as she sees them. That is always refreshing. Some of her mimicry was a tad overdone on stage, but overall this is a very funny stand-up comedy show with a good dose of reality.
