The adrenaline of a live performance is unlike anything in film or theater. I can see why it's so addictive.
The live performance aspect of shooting a multicamera sitcom is wonderful. You have that instant audience reaction.
Yes, I believe stories are very important to all performances. The life story of the performer shapes their work, and the life stories of the audience alter how they receive the work, what they read into the performer.
Live performance really terrifies me. I haven't done it, really, in years. I think that's why I retired from my brief career in stand-up.
We film in front of a live audience, and I was a theater actor before I got into television, so I like that.
Yes, yes, theater in general is just going to always be my first love, performing for a live audience.
Every time I see a live performance of something, I'm like, 'I want to be doing that!'
If you go on stage with the wrong attitude, or something in your performance is off, you can lose an audience in the first minute. That first minute is crucial.
It always gave me the creeps when I saw performers who desperately wanted the audience to like them. That's not what I'm about.
