Newsies fans have been doing some double takes as of late. It seems the hit Broadway musical has hired a pair of twin Latino dancers and they’re building a ton of buzz.

Jacob and David Guzman are just 17-years-old, but they move like seasoned pros. In fact, they’ve already appeared on shows like Dancing With The Stars and have competed professionally for years. For Newsies, the guys play Mush and Scab (respectively) and are earning rave reviews.

“I think what’s great about having a twin like this is I’m pushing him and he’s pushing me, so it’s forcing us both to be better,” Jacob told Yahoo News. “We get to where we can be the best we can be.”

And seeing how they’re just high school seniors, the Guzman brothers clearly have a bright future ahead. Perhaps they can even give the Olsens a run for their money.
