In our conversation, Morgan talks to me about temp jobs, acapella, and the New York City improv scene. Morgan loves to sing as evidenced by the multiple years singing in a professional acapella group. When he got into improv, he started with short form at Chicago City Limits. He says he liked their theater space and their focus on musical improv was a BIG plus as well.
Morgan talks to me about his experience with UCB NY. From taking classes to auditioning way too many times just to get onstage and then finally to be teaching in the conservatory, Morgan spent a lot of years at the NYC theater of Upright Citizens Brigade. We talked about it ending and how hard that can be when your community crumbles. I commiserated obviously.
And then he told me what it was like to go viral on TikTok in your mid forties. It sounds like fun, y’all.
We talk about some serious stuff here and there, but I swear we’re both hysterically funny, me especially, I mean Morgan, my guest. My guest Morgan was very funny.
