That's why we have tryouts." ↗

The best thing that I got was rehearsing with my father. It was always about the process of figuring things out, and trying something new, and having another take on something and keeping it alive. ↗

My stand-up is quite good now, people say. It's just like a big conversation each time. Every gig is a rehearsal. ↗
