I forgot about that.

Yeah, and th- and in fact, listening to James respond to your question, it reminded me why I love working with James on these projects, especially this new show.

As you heard, James has just a passion, but a global understanding of why he does what he does and why it's important, and kind of a through line of a philosophy behind performance.

And I have fought tooth and nail for the past several decades in magic that people either think that way or they're just dicking around with card tricks that are pointless.

There needs to be kind of an underlying point to all of it, and you've heard just a, a sneak peek of some of the thinking that James brings to the table.

And I would go beyond that to say in an era when, you know, people are troubled by technology lying to them and faking it, James doesn't, and I can tell you this 'cause I'm not James, uh, as director, James doesn't use technology to achieve anything that he does.

James Allan, first and foremost, is a classic artist of magic.

Right.
