Chelsea Handler Returns to Standup Comedy in HBO Max Special

Chelsea Handler will return to her standup comedy roots for the first time in six years with “Chelsea Handler: Evolution,” premiering Oct. 22 on HBO Max.

In the special, Handler shares her experiences, thoughts and honest perspectives about family, friendships, therapy and her journey to self-awareness.

Coming on the heels of her bestselling memoir “Life Will Be the Death of Me,” the hour-long special was taped this summer in New Jersey in front of a live audience, with COVID social distancing and safety precautions in place.
