I think there's a fear of disconnect sometimes; communication is a huge issue for all of us, from adults to kids, as far as our face-to-face time and our ability to interact with each other without isolating itself to a phone. I think that has to be something that's very challenging.

There are a lot of shows that have been saved because the fans weighed in.

When you get onstage, you can see everyone in the audience's face, down to the detail. You can see who may or may not be yawning.
attribute explore
The passion to explore and not be afraid to fail - that's something I will always attribute to the Groundlings.
You'd just die if you put your head to the grindstone.
bigger journey learning translate
Writing sketches, you're also learning about a journey and characters, and you translate that to bigger things.
