Loading ...One of our beloved McCaingel actresses, Natasha Leggero, opens up about her creative process, type-casting, and theories on the apocalypse…
How did you prepare for the role of somebody preparing for the role of a lesbian?
NATASHA LEGGERO: It was a long and arduous process because my character Whitney takes more of a method approach to her characters than I take to mine. I played Whitney using a technique taught by Stella Adler known as “outside-in” where I become the character externally and then the rest follows. Whitney, on the other hand, played the part of the lesbo using the Strasberg technique; “inside-out”. She really focused on the emotional life of the lesbian character by examining her psychological motives, including carrying around an “inner-object” in her pocket at all times to remind her of the character. Also we both did a lot of frenching.
