Louis CK’s stand-up set draws protesters

-

Protesters demonstrat­ed outside Louis C.K.’s comedy show in New York Monday night.

The disgraced comedian took time out of the spotlight after he was accused of sexual misconduct in an expose in November 2017. Five women recalled instances where he would masturbate in front of them or ask them if he could, and the star subsequent­ly issued a statement admitting the claims were all true.

He began making his comedy comeback in August, appearing unannounce­d at comedy shows in New York. He delivered his fifth stand-up routine on Monday.

One protester, 27-year-old Lana McCray, told New York

Post’s Page Six he should not be welcomed back to the stage, saying, “He shouldn’t get to feel comfortabl­e.”
