The Lying Game Q&A with Alice Greczyn

Hey gang! How much are you loving The Lying Game this season? Cam you believe Mads learned the truth about the twins' big secret? Alice Greczyn, the actress who plays Mads, answered some of your questions about her role and dished on what's to come. Click through the next few pages to get the juicy behind-the-scenes scoop!


Moderator: How do you think things are going to change for Mads and the other characters now that she knows the twin’s big secret?

Alice Greczyn:
The biggest thing that changes for Mads is that being let in on the secret opens up a door for her to find out a lot more about her dad and his possible involvement in all the mysteries on the show. For the rest of the season, Mads is pretty much just uncovering more and more about him, and it brings a lot of tension between Mads and Thayer, and Emma’s sort of in the middle of it.

Mads kind of acts as an ally to Emma because she’s really upset with Sutton, and now that she knows Emma’s not actually Sutton, she and Emma can be friends. But at the same time, Emma’s also the one telling Mads thing she doesn’t want to hear about her dad, so there’s still some tension there, and that plays out through the rest of the season…

Moderator: In the show, Mads is all about ballet. Fans keep asking: Is ballet a part of your life, too?

Alice Greczyn: No, but I am so flattered that they even asked. That means I’m doing something right if it’s not extremely obvious. No, I’m not a dancer. I was a competitive figure skater when I was a kid. I think I did, maybe, six months of ballet at some point in there in my childhood, but when I moved to Austin for the show, that was one of the first things I did. The first two, three weeks were filled with intensive days with a choreographer that the show hired to help work with me, since they weren’t going to use a dance double, and it was pretty brutal.
