Controversial comedian Louis C.K. was reportedly one of the latest guests to join Dave Chappelle in a series of performances Chappelle has been putting on outside Yellow Springs, where he lives.

Photographer Matthieu Bitton posted on Instagram a photo with the caption “Tonight’s surprise guest in the cornfield: Louis CK.,” including Chappelle, C.K., comedian Michelle Wolf, comedian Mohammed Amer and musician DJ Trauma.

Spin Magazine reported Saturday: “C.K. has been mounting a comeback since he admitted to sexual misconduct in 2017. He began performing again less than a year later, launched a tour in 2019, and self-released a special called Sincerely C.K. in April; however, this was his biggest outing since the allegations surfaced.”
