If you’re a fan of Pee-Wee or Broadway shows then I have some excellent news for you! HBO is planning on airing Paul Reuben’s current Broadway show as a a HBO special and will be shooting it at the Stephen Sondheim Theater New York this January.
“Before his hit series and movies, HBO introduced Paul Reubens’ Pee-wee Herman to a national audience in the Young Comedians series, followed by the groundbreaking 1981 special,” said Nancy Geller, SVP HBO Original Programming.
Marty Callner, who directed the 1981 HBO special “The Pee-wee Herman Show,” will direct Reubens’ Broadway special.
