"It's thrilling to have Paul back on the network, and it will be a blast to return to Pee-wee's Playhouse," said Nancy Geller, HBO's senior vice president of original programming.
The Broadway production opened at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre on Nov. 11, and is based on both Reubens' original stage show and his Emmy-winning Saturday morning program Pee-wee's Playhouse.
