Many comedians have a dark side that lets them take a negative thing and turn it funny.
The Yale group was doing the Harold. So by our senior year we were trying to do the Harold. Again, we had no idea what we were doing. We had one guy in the group who was pretty experimental; he would kind of push us to do weird things. It was really fun, a great experience.
I did Second City, and Nia Vardalos also did Second City, so I knew her from there.
I think for anyone - male or female - in improv, the biggest thing to get over is the fear. I think every improviser has that.
One of the first jobs I did out of drama school was a panto at the Magnum.
These wrestlers aren't organized. They have no union, no pension and no insurance. You meet wrestler after wrestler who sold out Madison Square Garden ten years ago, basically running on fumes today. There's a lot of drama there.
I like nothing more than a character sacrificing himself or herself for the sake of others. That's drama at its finest for me.
When I was at drama school, people weren't taking pictures of themselves every five minutes. So I didn't realise how I looked. It was only when people started taking pictures of themselves that I looked at myself and thought: 'Oh my God, I look really miserable.' Even when I'm happy I look sad.
When I was a kid, I used to make up all these characters. I love comedy a lot, and I don't get to do it often. Somewhere in the middle, I shifted into doing drama.
