After an extended, sold out run in 2013, Signature welcomes back Irwin and Shiner in Old Hats, called “one of the funniest shows of the past few years” by the New York Post, and selected as a Critics’ Pick by The New York Times and Time Out New York. This production reunites the clowns with original director Tina Landau and introduces their new songstress and comic foil Shaina Taub, hailed as “a young Judy Garland meets grown-up Lisa Simpson” by the San Francisco Chronicle. Using music, technology, and movement, Irwin and Shiner combine their inimitable magic and slapstick to create an unforgettable outing that’s fun for the whole family.
The design team includes G.W. Mercier (Scenic and Costume Design), Scott Zielinski (Lighting Design), John Gromada (Sound Design), Wendall K. Harrington (Projection Design). David H. Lurie is the Production Stage Manager. Casting by Telsey + Company, Will Cantler, CSA.
