>"An interview with Cecily Strong about her new memoir ‘This Will All Be Over Soon,’ her role in the Apple comedy series ‘Schmigadoon,’ ‘SNL,’ and more."Cecily Strong’s new book, This Will All Be Over Soon, isn’t what you expect from a Saturday Night Live cast member’s first memoir. It’s a dispatch from the darkest days of 2020 documenting both the shared anxieties of those early pandemic months, including her partner Jack contracting COVID that March, and her own personal mourning after the loss of her cousin to glioblastoma. Strong isn’t afraid of really sitting in that grief and uncertainty, but the book — which began as a personal diary before turning into a larger project — comes off as oddly hopeful. Now, with a second Emmy nomination and a starring role in Apple TV series Schmigadoon, we spoke with Strong about making her diary public, musicals, and whether or not she’s returning to SNL.
