    Steve Martin and Martin Short play Foxwoods

    Steve Martin and Martin Short clearly just love hanging around together.

    They co-star in the Hulu series “Only Murders in the Building,” of course, and they whipped up a stage show so they could do live gigs together.

    They bring that show to Foxwoods on Friday and Sunday.

    The duo has cheekily changed the name of their live show over the years, from “A Very Stupid Conversation” to “An Evening You Will Forget the Rest of Your Lives” the current “You Won’t Believe What They Look Like Today!”

    I saw them in 2015 at the Oakdale Theatre in Wallingford, and they were – no surprise here – hilarious. The show has them joking about their careers and performing some of their characters (we can only hope that Short’s Jiminy Glick makes an appearance).

    Steve Martin and Martin Short, 7:30 p.m. Friday and 5 p.m. Sunday, Premier Theatre, Foxwoods; with Woody Platt and The Bluegrass Gentlemen with piano player Jeff Babko; as of press time, numerous $245-$290 tickets remained for the Sun. show, and a few were being sold for the Fri.; foxwoods.com.
