Early work
Fallon appeared in the feature film The Scheme (originally entitled The Entrepreneurs). His one line in Father's Day was cut but he can still be seen in the background. By late 1998, Fallon was studying at the Groundlings Theater in Los Angeles, making $7.50 a set at The Improv Theater, when he was summoned to New York to audition for the long-running late night sketch comedy show, Saturday Night Live. Fallon did his impersonations of Jerry Seinfeld, John Travolta, French Stewart, Chris Rock, Gilbert Gottfried, Kelsey Grammer, and Adam Sandler, many of which drew laughter from producer Lorne Michaels. Fallon also did musical impersonations of Eddie Vedder, Adam Duritz of Counting Crows, Alanis Morissette, and Robert Smith of The Cure..
