My SNL Story: Mitchell Laurance
We are extremely excited to debut a new show on The Not Ready for Prime Time Project. “My SNL Story” is where we get the chance to talk with the people who played an integral part in the life of Saturday Night Live and hear THEIR story about the show and time on it.
In our first installment we talk to Mitchell Laurance, who worked on SNL from 1975-1980. Mitchell talks about what it was like being in the studio every Saturday night and working his way up from production assistant to associate director over the span of those first five seasons. He shares tales of working alongside Dave Wilson, how special Buck Henry was to all involved, and how his connection to Penny Marshall via the show helped set him off on his post-SNL career. Mitchell also shares stories of Gilda Radner, Steve Martin, Ray Charles, and so much more. Enjoy!
