“Clyde” Hosts Village Halloween Parade

Monday, 31 October 2011 | by Pat's Picks

For the second year in a row, I’m hosting NY1’s live telecast of the Village Halloween Parade.

Last year, the crew of The Addams Family set me up as Gomez Addams. This year, the new Broadway production of Bonnie and Clyde has set me up as Clyde Barrow. I was at Saint Laurie Merchant Tailors on Friday for my costume fitting. The company provides costumes to stage and screen, and set me up with a fantastic “Clyde” suit. It’s got high-waisted pants and a heavy fabric typical of the suits men wore in the early 1930s.

 

You can see me in my full getup when NY1’s coverage of the Halloween Parade starts at 8:00 pm. Or click here to see Stephanie Simon’s story about the making of our costumes.
