Comedian and writer Shanna Christmas is set to release her bold new comedy special, Highly Intelligent, on May 20 – premiering on Amazon and YouTube – followed by the release of the album version on May 23 via Comedy Dynamics.
Throughout the special, which was filmed in an intimate Las Vegas jazz club, Christmas shares hilarious punchlines as well as deeply personal insights. Near the end of the show, the comedian reexamines her own story of surviving sexual assault and approaches the gut-wrenching experience through a lens of strength and even humor.
“I wanted to make a special that felt like me,” Christmas said in a statement. “Loud, fast, honest, funny – but also full of real life. Because comedy is how I take my power back. And I want people to feel theirs, too.”
