Hannibal Buress’ microphone was cut off and he left the stage early during his performance last night at Loyola University Chicago, the Catholic institution’s newspaper the Loyola Phoenix reports. He was cut off after he reportedly alluded to the Catholic church’s history of child molestation and sexual abuse. He told the joke after sharing an email he’d received from the school in advance, which prohibited him from referencing “rape, sexual assault, race, sexual orientation/gender,” or “illegal drugs” during his performance. He initially tried to continue performing without a microphone, but music was reportedly turned up until he left the stage. After the crowd chanted things like “we want refunds,” Buress eventually returned to the stage and reportedly joked multiple times about his mic being cut.

Days after the performance, Buress tweeted, “Yeah I agreed to the content restrictions for the Loyola. Who hasn’t lied at a job interview before?? 😂😂😂.” Pitchfork has reached out to representatives for Buress and the school for comment.

In 2014, Buress’ routine about Bill Cosby being a rapist went viral. Although allegations about the actor were known at the time, Buress’ material reignited criticism against Cosby.
