A comedian named Lisa Gilroy posted a video of herself doing a “dramatic monologue” for her virtual acting class.

The piece she chose was a Doctor Evil speech from “Austin Powers” . . . and she plays it so straight that it sounds profound.  According to her caption, no one even noticed that it was kind of a joke.

My acting teacher told us to perform a dramatic monologue from any movie and I did mine from Austin Powers and no one noticed. pic.twitter.com/1ZZtIsJdvE
