Ethan Shanfeld Cameron Esposito has announced a new stand-up comedy special titled “Four Pills,” which will debut on the streaming platform Dropout on April 11.
The special, which is directed by Esposito, “guides the audience on a surreal journey through the ups and downs of her bipolar disorder diagnosis, with detours to talk about marriage, divinity school and one extremely unlucky dog,” per the logline. “When you do this job, the number one thing people will say is, ‘I don’t know how you can do that job.
Stand-up is my biggest fear,’ and I’ve always said, ‘Well it’s just because it’s not my biggest fear,'” Esposito says in the trailer for the special. “Like, as a follow-up question for you, how are you able to be alone in a room with yourself?” Esposito has previously released three comedy specials, including the acclaimed “Rape Jokes,” an hour about sexual assault from her perspective.
The special was released for free on Esposito’s website, but viewers could pay what they wish as a donation to RAINN, the largest anti-sexual violence organization in the United States.
