'Chaser' boys working on new show

The team behind comedy stunt showThe Chaser's War On Everything have revealed that they are working on a new show.

The creative team, which consists of Craig Reucassel and Julian Morrow, said that they hope to trial live Q and A event The Empty Vessel for three nights at the Kings Cross Hotel in Sydney next month.

According to The Age, the boys will be interviewing guests and then giving audience members the opportunity to ask questions during the shows.

Reucassel told the Sun Herald: "It's not going to be The Chaser's War On Everything and if you come along expecting that, you'll be disappointed. It's an extension of our writing, of some of the other stuff. Not everything will be a gag."

Morrow added: "I'd like to call it a kind of w**ker variety show. In the past we've done comedy shows but this is a combination of interviews and chat with special guests. It's for the ADD generation.

"It might turn into a TV show but that's a long way down the track. My ideal would be for this to become something that's regular in Sydney. We've done live events in the past but they've generally been full comedy shows so it's nice to be able to have things that don't have to be a gag every second.'"

The last series of The Chaser's War On Everything finished in 2009 after its stars controversially tried to scale a church spire during a service which Prime Minister Kevin Rudd was attending to mark the death of an Australian soldier in Afghanistan.
