Enjoy this classic stand-up performance from trailblazing comedian Elayne Boosler. Originally released in 1989, this one-hour comedy event was Boosler’s third stand-up special for Showtime and showcases her signature observational style and sharp, topical humor.

Filmed as a live performance, Top Tomata was celebrated for capturing the energy of Boosler’s stand-up and was voted “Special of the Year” by readers of Cable Guide magazine.

A pioneering voice in stand-up, Boosler built her reputation in the 1970s and ’80s with a candid, fast-paced comedic style that often drew from her personal life and included social and political commentary. Top Tomata captures that voice at its peak—live, unfiltered, and ahead of its time.
