“It all started in Adelaide. I went to a charity shop with my friend, found a jacket, a hat, and shoes, but couldn’t find trousers. I put on the jacket, hat, and shoes, and started doing a silly walk around the shop trouser-less.”

Is this your first time to Edinburgh?
We heard people like hiking in Edinburgh, so we thought it’s the perfect place to bring our show about legs here. We had the time of our lives with our previous shows ‘Sensitive Bricks’ and ‘Late Night Nonsense’.
What’s the biggest thing to have happened to you since Festivals ’18?
The best thing that happened was that we made a show about legs, our favourite limbs. It all started in Adelaide. I went to a charity shop with my friend, found a jacket, a hat, and shoes, but couldn’t find trousers. I put on the jacket, hat, and shoes, and started doing a silly walk around the shop trouser-less. My friend was laughing and said: ‘You have to go on stage like that’. I went on stage dressed like that, it was awkward so I said: ‘Legs’, everyone laughed. Then The Duncan Brothers came on board and we made an hour show about legs. This is the only show I’ve ever been in where I pee myself a little bit backstage every-time.
Tell us about your show.
The Duncan Brothers are real-life brothers, and Julia dreamt to be a Duncan Brother since she met them. Dreams come true.
If at any point in your life you have used your legs, thought about legs or if you know someone with legs, then this is the show for you. Legs. *Warning: this show may contain legs.
We have created the show with direction from the brilliant Dan Lees (The Establishment).
