Show Must Go On

Rory Scovel spends a chunk of his set walking through a scenario where someone breaks into his home, turning a standard stand-up paranoia premise into a prolonged, ridiculous bit of theatrical performance. He follows that up by staging a biblical reenactment and sifting through his late father’s final wish.

Directed by Scott Moran, the hour was filmed at The Neptune Theatre in Seattle and released on Netflix in August 2026. Coming off his 2024 release, Religion, Sex, and a Few Things in Between, Scovel anchors his unpredictable energy around familiar domestic topics, blending his absurd sensibility with riffs on marriage and political posturing.
