Ali Wong and her opening act, Sheng Wang, were both so funny! Enjoyed tremendously!!
Ali Wong is in her newly divorced mom era and I’m here for it!!
I'm so beyond happy that Ali was my first comedy show that I went to see. I bought her book, "Dear Girls"because I was sad and needed a laugh, followed her on instagram and was so surprised she was performing local to me. Her set in Red Bank beats any of her specials that I saw. Every joke was a banger and her opening act Sheng Weng was great too.
Ali Wong was hilarious! And Sheng Wang, the opening act, was also very funny!
She is always outstanding and doesn't need much but a screen might be helpful
Had a hard and stressful week and coming to this show was just the pickup I needed. Both comedians, had me in tears laughing throughout the show.
I was expecting a longer show considering the price
Ali wong was funny as ever! The show did not disappoint. Even her opener, Sheng Wang, was hilarious!
The show was great. The right amount of laughs and sneak peek into her life. Very entertaining and was probably more on the 18plus side for those who want to bring kids.
This was an amazing show. She was so hilarious and entertaining. I would definitely see her again.
Ali Wong did a great job. I would totally recommend going to her show. Do not bring the kids though! Ha!
Ali was so funny, as always! She didn't disappoint with this new show about her experience with divorce and rebuilding her life after such a difficult experience. Sheng Wang was also very hilarious and the pair were very complimentary. Can't wait til they're back in Chicago!
The show was awesome and really funny. It was as I expected.
So funny my cheeks still hurt thinking about it! Highly recommend, especially if you are a woman in your 40s.
Ali Wong was hilarious!! Been too long since she toured. So glad she’s back. Go see her! Totally worth it
It's refreshing to find comics who continue to push the genre forward with hilariously amazing storytelling, fresh witty material, and a unique voice + POV. Ali is one of the best live performers out there....in the echelon with Chappelle, Chris Rock, Bill Burr --- she's that level of funny and genius. Money well spent.
Allie was her usual incredibly funny self. The warm up comedian was also outstanding. Allie was inappropriately funny and nasty all at the same time. I love her honesty and the way she finds humor in things like divorce. She says the things we are all thinking.
Both Sheng Wang & Ali Wong are comedic powerhouses! So so funny. Also happy to see AAPI represent.
I had tears in my eyes throughout Ali's performance. She says it like she sees it, no apologies! She talks about her life after divorce. There's a reason why she was in Chicago for 3 nights!
Ali Wong is just as funny - if not more so - in real life than on tv!! Run, don’t walk, to get your hands on these tickets!
