HBO Max just dropped the official trailer for the Max Original stand-up comedy special, Phoebe Robinson: Sorry, Harriet Tubman. After a “truly trash” year, actor, producer, and New York Times bestselling author Phoebe Robinson (HBO’s 2 Dope Queens) is finally out of quarantine and ready to get back onstage. The special debuts Thursday, October 14 on HBO Max.
Bringing her signature brand of authentic confessional humor to her first-ever solo stand-up special, Robinson gets real about therapy, interracial dating, reparations, hanging out with Michelle Obama, aging out of watching civil rights movies, and more in a no-holds-barred hour of comedy that’s both unflinchingly honest – and uniquely hilarious.
The special is written and performed by Phoebe Robinson. Directed by Kristian Mercado, the special is executive produced by Robinson as well as Ravi Nandan, Inman Young, Alli Reich, and Corey Deckler for A24 and Jose Acevedo and Mai Huynh for Tiny Reparations.
Robinson began her career writing for MTV’s Girl Code and served as a consultant on the third season of Comedy Central’s Broad City. She gained notoriety from co-hosting her popular podcast 2 Dope Queens alongside Jessica Williams, which was later developed into a special on HBO. Robinson’s other TV appearances include NBC’s Last Comic Standing, the Today show, Broad City, @midnight, and The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore, FX’s Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell and more. Upcoming, Robinson is set to star and executive produce an interview show on Comedy Central via her production company, Tiny Reparations.
