I was never that good on stage with live improv. I was much better on film or writing something and then thinking about it. I was too in my head when I was on stage.

Oddly enough, I have really bad stage fright - getting up in front of people. And I made a living going on live television.

I do an improv show on Sunday where we have a class, and then afterwards we go and do a live performance in front of an audience.

Once, and only once, I walked on stage and my mind went utterly blank! I had no idea why I was there! My fellow actors had to rescue me. I was very young and new to the business, so I'm glad it didn't give me stage fright for the rest of my life!

Most of my career has been about standing on a stage performing music to an audience, and once the show is over, they go home and I go on to the next show.

I'm never not nervous before going onstage. Like... what if I fall on my face?

I started out doing my mother's nightclub act, and I had stage fright.

I'm an actor first and foremost, who happens to do improv. I've also done sitcoms, I've done stage.

I reached the stage where I was afraid to wiggle my leg, but then I thought 'why shouldn't I?' It's what I do and now I know how to turn an audience on again.
