Irish Repertory Theatre has extended its Sean O'Casey Season, devoted to the playwright's work. The three productions will run in repertory for an additional four weeks, now concluding on June 22.

The productions include The Shadow of a Gunman, Juno and the Paycock, and The Plough and the Stars. The shows run in rotating repertory, and can also be seen in single-day viewings on several Saturdays throughout May and June.

Additional events include the screening of the film Under a Colored Cap (May 13), the concert Sean, Women, and Son (May 4-5), and panel discussions about O'Casey's work (May 9 and 23).
