The Clowns are Here to Stay! Old Hats, Starring Bill Irwin & David Shiner, Extends Through June

Old Hats has extended off-Broadway for a fourth time! Bill Irwin and David Shiner’s acclaimed clown comedy will now play for an additional month through June 9. Old Hats opened on March 4 at the Irene Diamond Stage. Directed by Tina Landau and featuring singer-songwriter Nellie McKay, the Signature Theatre Company engagement was originally set to conclude May 9.

Irwin and Shiner are reuniting in Old Hats, a new work combining their unparalleled magic and slapstick. Featuring music by McKay, as well as technology and movement, the duo creates a wild and remarkable world for a new generation of audiences. Old Hats is the first collaboration for Irwin and Shiner since they starred together in Broadway’s Fool Moon in 1993, 1995 and 1998.

Old Hats features scenic and costume design by G.W. Mercier, lighting design by Peter Kaczorowski, sound design by John Gromada and projection design by Wendall K. Harrington.
