If People Want To See Me In

People Say, 'don't You Get Tired Of People Coming Up To You All The Time?' But What's Wrong With Strangers Saying They Love You?

I Get The Greatest Joy From Just Doing Anything, Being An Actor. Doing Music, And Doing What I Love To Do. I Don't Make A Huge Distinction Between Comedy And Drama. I Think The Whole Point Is Just Trying To Be As Honest, From Moment To Moment, As You Can Be. If You're Honest About The Material, And The Material Is Ridiculous, Then You're In A Comedy.

I Was A Solid C Student Because I Was Doing So Many Plays. I Was A Drama Nerd, But I Was Also Kind Of A Zelig-like Character; I Would Shift Between Different Groups Of People. But The People I Spent Most Of My Time With Were Either Chorus Or Swing Choir Or The Drama Nerds.

Kind Of The Exhausting Thing About Doing Pure Comedy, Or Something That's Broader, Is You're Kind Of A Slave To The Laugh. If It's Not Funny, Then There's Not Much Point In Doing It. The Kind Of über-objective Is To Make People Laugh. You Always Have To Have That In The Back Of Your Mind, "eh, I've Got To Figure Out A Way To Make This Funny."

I Don't Mind Doing Scripted Material. It's Actually Kind Of A Relief, Because Improvising Is A Little Bit Like Screenwriting On Your Feet.
