Acclaimed comedian and former “Saturday Night Live” writer for the “Weekend Update” Drew Michael stars in his first HBO® comedy special, “Drew Michael,” available for Digital Download September 24th.
Directed by comedy actor and writer Jerrod Carmichael (HBO’s “Jerrod Carmichael: 8”), Drew Michael is “inventive and cerebral, and insists that you ponder the mechanics of comedy” (Vulture).
Michael has been called “The Man Behind the Most Experimental Stand-Up Special of 2018” (Rolling Stone) in this uniquely filmed, stripped-down stage setting with no audience. In his confessional-style delivery, Michael searches through his own identity against a black void and his solo musings are intermingled with footage of FaceTime conversations with his “girlfriend,” a young British woman played by Suki Waterhouse (“Love, Rosie”).
This one-hour special marks the latest addition to HBO’s recent comedy specials including “Bill Maher: Live From Oklahoma,” “Michelle Wolf: Nice Lady,” “George Lopez: The Wall-Live From Washington, D.C.,” and more.
