Yvonne Orji: Momma I Made It premieres Saturday, June 6 at 10PM on HBO. Comedian and actress Yvonne Orji (HBO’s “Insecure,” “Night School”) celebrates her Nigerian-American upbringing in her first hour-long HBO comedy special, YVONNE ORJI: MOMMA, I MADE IT!, premiering SATURDAY, JUNE 6 (10:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on HBO.
Let’s talk about the promo photo! Yvonne looks amazing sitting on this gold throne. She is looking sharp in this green and white African ankara print suit. Love it!
The special will also be available on HBO NOW, HBO GO, HBO On Demand and partners’ streaming platforms.
Interspersed with vibrant, personal footage shot in Nigeria, Yvonne’s native home, during a milestone trip in early January, YVONNE ORJI: MOMMA, I MADE IT! 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.
