His team confirmed to HKFP on Monday that a previously announced Manila date would be replaced by the appearance in Hong Kong. He will also take to the stage in India, Thailand and Japan.

“Simply, I’m hitting the road again and staying out there for a long while. I am, after all, a professional stand-up comedian,” the multi-award winning comic wrote in an email to fans.

C.K. rose to prominence as a writer for Saturday Night Live and late night talk show hosts. He released nine comedy albums, starred in numerous specials, and received acclaim for his semi-autobiographical comedy-drama series Louie.

The comedian’s projects were cancelled following sexual misconduct allegations in 2017. But he has since continued to tour and release stand-up specials.
