*Comedian and actress Yvonne Orji celebrates her Nigerian-American upbringing in her first hour-long HBO comedy special, ‘Yvonne Orji: Momma, I Made It!’ premiering Saturday, June 5 (10:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT).
Interspersed with vibrant, personal footage shot in Nigeria during a milestone trip home in early January, the special takes an intimate, hilarious look at what being Nigerian-American means to Yvonne – from her international haggling addiction and having her phone tapped by her parents as a kid, to the fine line between cursing people out and putting curses on them.
The special was filmed before a live audience at the Howard Theatre in Washington, D.C.
