While he was growing up, Mo Alexander always loved comedy but his girlfriend was the one who motivated him to put his dream into motion. “I just tell the truth about the world, no matter if it’s good or bad” Alexander has said in interviews. He makes fun of anything and anybody, including himself and his family. He has opened for like-minded comics such as Tommy Davidson, Keenan Ivory Wayans and Chris Rock. He performs tonight at 8 at the Comedy Zone at the Thistledown Racino. He also performs there tomorrow and Saturday. Tickets are $15 (Lisa Hammond)
