Interview: Mike Birbiglia (Sleepwalk With Me)

Behind that semi-stoned appearance you’ve probably come to know from his stand-up performances or his frequent appearances on This American Life, comedian/writer/director Mike Birbiglia is a hard working guy who’s creative output is a highly personal, incredibly funny public processing exercise. His incredible story of hazardous sleepwalking and his crumbling romantic relationship that evolved in tandem has made it from the page to the stage and finally to the silver screen with greater success at each step. I caught up with him in the whirlwind following the premiere of his filmmaking debut, Sleepwalk With Me, at Sundance earlier this year.
