I Think Being Idle Is Quite Hard

Sometimes I'll Go Into A Shop And Speak In A Different Accent To See If I Can Pull It Off. But Then Somebody Will Be Like, 'where Did You Say You Were From Again?' And Then I Panic, And My Accent Dissolves, And I Pretend Like I Wasn't Doing It In The First Place.

It's The Reason We Go To Films And Watch Television: To Escape The Mundane Nature Of Life And See Another World And See Ourselves In That Other World. I Think That's What Sci-fi Does So Well.

Clothing And Makeup And Hair And All Of That So Much Indicates The Kind Of Person You Are Inside And The Person You Are Presenting On The Outside. Sometimes They Are In Conflict, And Sometimes They Are The Same. That Psychology Of The Exterior Informing The Interior Is Just So Interesting.

I Think The Improv Also Helps With The Imagination Of Dealing This Person Across From Me Who's Not Physically There. When You Do An Improv Scene, You're Usually Working On A Blank Stage And Creating The Props And Creating The Environment.

I Love Performing. I Love Doing Improv. It's A Totally Terrifying Experience, But It's Something That I've Always Felt So Strongly About And That I'm Kind Of Obsessed With. And Just As An Actor, It's A Great Exercise. It's A Great Playground, You Know, To Try Things Out And To Work On Your Skills. Because The Mandate Of Improv Is Kind Of The Same As Acting: It's All About Your Scene Partner, It's All About Being Present And In The Moment And Exploring Together As A Team, A Collaboration.
