“Frankly, as much as I love to improvise, it hasn't been difficult to stick to the script on 'Mad Men.' The writing is so precise, and the story so carefully crafted, that I don't think there's room - or need - for ad libbing. I could never come up with dialogue as lovely as these writers do, anyway.” ThinkingMenNeedsWritingStoriesDifficultRoomsMadSticksScriptsCome UpLovelyDialogueAdsPreciseMad Men Author:Rich Sommer
“Improv definitely made me a better auditioner, without a doubt. We did do an audition semester in grad school, and that was helpful for those times that you have a script and you have a few days to prepare it, to really work on sides. But the auditions I was doing in New York, if you got it the night before, you were very lucky.” IfsMadeSchoolNightSidesDoubtNew YorkLuckyScriptsHelpfulAuditionsGradSemesterGrad School Author:Rich Sommer
