Colin Mochrie on his long improv career and getting his 'big break' at 40
Actor and improvisational comedian Colin Mochrie talks about his latest role as The Fool in a new production of King Lear and what made him pursue comedy.
Chances are you'll recognize Colin Mochrie for his larger than life improvised antics. Whether it's on Whose Line Is It Anyway? or This Hour Has 22 Minutes he's built a career out of never following a script. But it's a career that may never have happened. Mochrie says that off stage he's a very shy person and if it hadn't been for a friend daring him to try out for the school musical, he would've never pursued comedy.
Colin Mochrie talks with guest host Ali Hassan about how getting his "big break" at 40 taught him how to always find the good in life and why improv lets him explore a different side of his personality.
