Amy Poehler: "Improvisation is Like the Military" (Oct. 28, 2014) | Charlie Rose

Amy Poehler compares improvisation to military service in this Charlie Rose interview segment, describing the trust and mutual dependence required between scene partners. Poehler, whose training at ImprovOlympic and Upright Citizens Brigade shaped her career before Saturday Night Live and Parks and Recreation, frames the abandonment of a scene partner as a kind of desertion. The conversation was part of a longer interview tied to the release of her memoir Yes Please.
