Prime Video Announces New Stand-Up Comedy Special "Tig Notaro: Hello Again"
The highly anticipated comedy special will premiere March 26 on Prime Video
LOS ANGELES - February 15, 2024 - Emmy, Grammy and SAG Award nominated comedian, actress, writer and director Tig Notaro returns to the stage for her new comedy special on Prime Video, Tig Notaro: Hello Again. The one-hour special will premiere in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide on March 26, 2024.
Tig Notaro: Hello Again is a hilarious and sharply observed stand-up special packed with delightfully awkward misunderstandings, health scares made hilarious, and family moments with her wife and children that are simultaneously sidesplitting and heartwarming. With her signature delivery and celebrated gift for storytelling, Notaro's new set hits all the right notes.
Rolling Stone named Notaro, a Mississippi native, one of the 50 best stand-up comics of all time.
Most recently, Notaro appeared in Season 3 of The Morning Show on Apple TV+ alongside Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon, and Star Trek: Discovery on Paramount Plus. She recently starred in the Netflix films Your Place or Mine and We Have a Ghost, as well as Zack Snyder's Army of the Dead. Prior to that, she starred in the Paramount film Instant Family alongside Mark Wahlberg and Octavia Spencer.
Notaro wrote, produced and starred in the semi-autobiographical Prime Video series One Mississippi, which yielded critical acclaim and a Critics Choice Award. Additionally, the show garnered nominations from the WGA Awards and the GLAAD Media Awards.
Her most recent HBO standup special, Tig Notaro: Drawn, made history as the first fully animated stand-up special and was nominated for a Hollywood Critics Association Award. In 2013, she was also nominated for a Grammy for her sophomore release, Live, which was the No. 1 selling comedy album in the world that year. Live is a stand-up performance Notaro delivered just days after she was diagnosed with bilateral breast cancer, from which she is now in remission.
Notaro and her wife, Stephanie Allynne, co-directed the feature film, Am I OK?, starring Dakota Johnson and Sonoya Mizuno. The romantic comedy premiered at Sundance and was acquired by HBO Max for a 2024 release.
Tig Notaro: Hello Again is produced by Amazon MGM Studios and Above Average, with Tig Notaro, Stephanie Allynne, Marc Lieberman and Ally Engelberg serving as executive producers. The special is directed by Stephanie Allynne.
Tig Notaro: Hello Again Synopsis
Emmy and Grammy nominated comedian Tig Notaro returns with Hello Again, a hilarious and sharply observed stand-up special packed with delightfully awkward misunderstandings, health scares made hilarious, and family moments with her wife and children that are simultaneously sidesplitting and heartwarming. From the "Make Believe Lounge" to the hallway outside her physical therapist's office, Notaro exercises her unique gift for finding humor in situations ranging from the everyday to the bizarre. A masterful stand up at the top of her game, Notaro crafts comedy out of hallucinatory text messages, a botched meeting with a Hollywood heavyweight, and a late-night encounter with a mustachioed fireman who has her questioning everything. Featuring her signature delivery and celebrated gift for storytelling, Notaro's riotous new hour is sure to entertain and amuse, hitting all the right notes along the way to its virtuosic finale.
