Jerry Seinfeld top Play Five Performances in NYC Boroughs, 10/4-11/8

For the first time in 14 years, Jerry Seinfeld is presenting full performances of his signature stand-up comedy in New York City. Seinfeld will perform five stand-up shows – one in each New York City borough – on five Thursday nights this Fall.

Seinfeld, a New York native, got his start as a comedian in the City in the 1970s, but other than appearing at benefits and occasional short sets at local Comedy Clubs, he has not performed a full show in a NYC theater since his sold-out Broadway engagement, "I'm Telling You For The Last Time," at the Broadhurst Theater in 1998, shortly after the final episode of his iconic TV show, Seinfeld.

" I was born in Brooklyn, went to school in Queens and started out as a comedian in Manhattan. I feel like New York City taught me how to be funny. I'm so excited to perform a special series of shows for my beloved home town," said Seinfeld.

Seinfeld's five-borough performances will all fall on Thursday nights – the same as the television show that bore his name – and will feature special guest Colin Quinn, who Seinfeld directed in the hit Broadway show "Colin Quinn: Long Story Short" at the Helen Hayes Theater in 2010-11.

Tickets for all five-borough shows go on sale to the general public on Monday, July 30 at 10 am. All performances begin at 8pm.
