“I love to sandwich the serious stuff (getting doxxed by anti-choicers, losing my mom to COVID) between dick jokes and boob jokes, and see what happens,” said Kilmartin in a statement to Deadline on the special. “I hope Cis Woke Grief Slut makes good people laugh, and dumb people mad.”
Added Comedy Dynamics CEO Brian Volk-Weiss, “Laurie is truly one of the great comedians in this industry, and her complete arsenal of hilarity is on display in her new special. We had a blast producing it, and we can’t wait for everyone to watch!”
Kilmartin’s new hour is directed by Matt Kubas. Volk-Weiss, Cisco Henson, Bruce Smith, and Kilmartin served as executive producers. The comedian is repped by Omnipop Talent Group West.
