But proving he can’t be kept down, Foxx takes the stage to applause and declares, “I’m back!”Though the clip stops short of revealing any details surrounding his medical scare, one scene shows Foxx tearing up. “What had happened was,” he says before the trailer ends.

Amidst laughter and applause, Jamie expresses deep gratitude to those who prayed and supported his recovery, turning this performance into a touching thank you to his fans. This comedy event is a celebration of resilience, humor, and the power of community, reminding us all of the healing power of laughter.” .
“But I needed the stage and I needed an audience that was made up of nothing but pure love and that’s what you were,” he continued. “When people ask me is this a stand up comedy show I say no it’s an artistic explanation. Of some thing that went terribly wrong, but thanks to the great people in Atlanta especially Piedmont Hospital you enabled me to come back and be on stage and do what I love to do the most.
