## Who is Colin Mochrie?

Colin Mochrie is an improviser who was born in Scotland and settled in Canada, where he learned his trade as an actor at Studio 58 in Vancouver. He was working with The Second City in Toronto when producers Dan Patterson and Mark Leveson spotted him and brought him to London for the improv series Whose Line Is It Anyway?. These days he shares a live act with his old Whose Line partner Brad Sherwood, in which the two of them make scenes up on the spot out of the audience's suggestions. [1]
