I'm reading "BossyPants" by Tina Fey" and I love it! She is the woman who was on SNL who then moved on 30Rock.. It turns out that she went to UVA and majored in Drama about 10 years after I got out - which is Incredibly cool! She took the same classes I did, and from.some of the same people! She talks in the book about the one big party the Drama department has every year, and I went to that party 3 times.
UVA isn't very big on comedy, though, or on improv. She never says that she learned anything she could use. With stuff like comedy, I guess you have to be lucky and put yourself in the right place at the right time.
I had one role at Virginia that Tina Fey could have played really well. It was when I played the whole Polish army iin Ubu Roi.
The book is good and entertaining
