I'm keep talking to people with boring backgrounds.

And yours is fantastic.

Yeah, I refuse to be deemed boring.

No, this is a kind of, Ah, Moroccan kind of backdrop E situation.

Yeah, it's very cool.

I want to sort of get you a hookah pipe or something.

It z very exotic.

I love it.

I don't know if I don't.

If I told you, I'm in a theater here in Los Angeles and it occurred to me that you have spent the good part of your life.

You've cut your teeth in the theater of obviously you've made a big splash and films.

But, um, what is it about the theater?

Because I'm not familiar with the theater world.

Little legitimate theater world.

I worked as a stripper for a while.

Um, and I earned no money.

I ended up owing money, but I get these images out of my head.

I'm sorry.

I know.

I apologize.

Let's just say it didn't go well for anybody.

But what is it?

Uh, is there anything in all the years that you did theater?

Was there anything that you could just never get used?

thio in the theater.

Anything that still strikes you as odd or weird.

Oh, God.

The weirdest thing And the thing I am still crafting, trying to learn I don't know that I've ever conquer it is the quintessential bow s.

So I don't know if you've ever if you've ever been called on Thio Bow after having given some kind of performance.

But when I was at the Royal Shakespeare Company, I was there with actors like Francis Delatour on Dallin Bates.

And these were titans of theater 20 years ago when I was sort of cutting my teeth.

And they had this knack off doing this bow regardless, by the way of how bad the performance had been, uh, off it was this combination off tiredness, false humility and grandeur in the bow.

I'm actually going to demonstrate because there's there's, there's there's there's I don't know if I could even do it with this backdrop, but, you know, you give it a shot.

That's okay.

I'm gonna move my chair.

Okay.

So, you, you you you I'm gonna tilt this up so you can weigh, Say, this is the quintessential royal Shakespeare bow.

Oh, okay.

I love the shock and getting pause because I live in a world and I see this all the time in America, where there's an applause sign and someone who does a show night in and night out walks out and it's like a goddamn button.

There's a button and you hear this Every night.

E was over the top and you're right.

It combines humility with incredible arrogance.

Oh, absolutely, absolutely.

And I have not been able to find the intersection off both where, like I say, even if you've given a bad performance, the audience just feels the need to go.

Oh, yeah, Oh, yeah, It's like really just applauding the bow when you think about it actually doing, and they go home thinking that they watched a great show.
