Everybody else we can listen -- how much.
Austin I didn't know multiple personalities actually could take didn't have grown every -- Absolutely yeah it's really incredible and you play Harry Potter.
-- -- yes for -- -- subsidy to a -- when we drugs that we decided kind of slightly more like -- -- have been.
And down if you squint to look the other way that's just like Daniel Radcliffe -- -- season.
I could totally see this kind of took a comedic approach.
Yes I think what -- -- huge fans right ultimately out.
They had to come from a real place of love is about having parity is -- and -- -- and we sort of potential fun it is the sort of so the jokes that the fans themselves which would make that a stunt sequence that trusts okay and so and Wear it on what platform redoing -- is it.
Is it on film more -- as it -- it's a stage show OK yes so we started off in the UK.
We played the West End in London.
Now we've come -- to New York could well PM in new York and -- performing.
-- -- -- -- -- Toshiba's format for a second -- not only just approved it okay and how for how long.
I would be had about three months my -- until September 2 this -- extend its us.
Yeah immigration tells us to go.
Even if -- we -- know I tell you here in the United States as you obviously know by the fact that your show has been extended.
Harry Potter is a huge phenomenon I am going to admit I have not read one of the books -- Well I.
-- -- -- -- Possibly sickened by.
But hearing the clip actually.
The two of you doing this seventy minutes I -- I'm fascinated really about it.
It's like 300 characters because not one Broadway or off Broadway star.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- How is I don't know you don't let us and I loved to make none of it.
Yeah.
I'm pretty happy here to entered the season.
Iraq for some reason has become New Jersey and he's a very much and they don't you don't we went to vertical view of look at -- None of my -- and -- -- you'll look back.
For the people to go to the show that we -- just New Yorkers are all over it is irrelevant if you have a lot -- there.
But -- -- it doesn't seem to matter because I think New Jersey and the jokes that are associated with that are universal some have -- -- -- -- -- It's pretty you know gets away with them all voice that think everybody's -- gives -- civilians -- about what's your favorite -- tabs are a little -- Preventive care yeah.
-- really good and -- I -- what your feelings.
But 300 characters I mean what is your -- of my favorite -- -- the most -- -- -- because and we keep saying this I feel sorry for him.
Because he's the -- -- since he's meant to be.
The great this was -- -- -- is meant to be the epitome of all which is evil and an eleven year old boy keeps big team and that's gonna you -- -- this tiny -- can spacing and -- Played eleven you know point now you will have the W bush carried quotes around and they put I think I'll tell you -- -- -- I don't.
The wizard but I just feel yeah.
-- You can come easy one.
Freedom and a long characters and it might become more and we -- -- -- -- woman showed up on how to I could tell me about the -- started where and it's.
Give me give me sort of a chronological.
Where you guys started and where had.
Yeah I started in 2006 the Edinburgh fringe festival and that what we played to fifty people a day.
And -- we told the UK for about three years we've got to try to very kit funny going to west end of London in 2009 nothing interest.
Amazing we thought was able to let -- -- in the pinnacle of web because.
And -- that was on the west and a few times number off to a trip to Toronto which is where we went -- beginning of this year and in some crazy -- lost just once come to new York and we.
We that you don't often got -- -- -- continue you'll always have.
Create I mean that's the -- the -- say oh well I.
I hate it when it comes to -- call.
And when it comes to acting on Broadway off Broadway I mean this -- -- play city is the dream perhaps some days it's amazing who are going into the port on the big screen yeah there were not in film but as far as live audience performance New York City as a place to -- an honor this is it -- -- -- absolutely absolutely we have to keep pinching ourselves who we really are just these two friends messing around -- we write this if you're.

-- -- -- -- Thanksgiving in London and I didn't realize that I mean I didn't think I have a they -- -- -- the other way around for a price not I associate with some sad.
Yeah I would have major it's really possible -- that's -- don't want terrorists to.
Actually London doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving night and I chose to go to every Thanksgiving and I knew this of course if they didn't think he would be so difficult to actually find what the Texans can potentially volatile throughout I think yeah it's all on yourself yeah yeah and it's an amazing that's what you would think.
