Cristela Alonzo Coming to Comedy Works Larimer Square, 8/13-16

Cristela Alonzo made TV history in 2014, by being the first Latina to create, produce and star in a network TV sitcom, "Cristela," an achievement which caps a whirlwind year. She released "Some of the Hits," her first stand-up CD through Comedy Central, was a viewer favorite as a featured guest host on ABC's "The View" and will be making her feature film debut in the upcoming Angry Birds movie.

Cristela rose to fame in the world of stand­up and has since topped multiple comedy power player lists including "Variety's Top 10 Comics to Watch," "Top 10 Comedy Acts to Watch in 2014" by LA Weekly, Cosmo Latina's "8 Women You Should be Following on Twitter," Time Out's "Comics to Watch," Cosmo's "13 Female Comedians to Watch For in 2014," and "One of the 50 Comedians You Should and WILL Know" by Vulture.com.

She taped The Half Hour, her first half-hour special in Boston, which premiered in June 2013 on Comedy Central to rave reviews. Cristela has also made appearances on The Late Show with David Letterman, Conan, Gabriel Iglesias' Stand Up Revolution, Showtime's Legally Brown, Last Comic Standing and Live at Gotham. In addition, she has performed at the Bonnaroo Music Festival and the Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal.
