Show Notes
I first took note of Ariel Kavoussi's singular comedic talent in Onur Tukel's "Applesauce" and then "Catfight," where she hilariously played Ann Heche's assistant and stole every scene she was in. She performed a similar theft this past year on the Netflix series "Maniac," opposite Emma Stone. She also writes and directs her own work. Her new short film "The Poet and The Professor" was called a "truly absurdist, provocative, and contemporary feminist film" by Indiewire. We talk about the origins of her approach to comedy, how she works the audition rooms she suddenly finds herself in, and her relationship to her own unique speaking voice. Plus much more!
