Jerry Seinfeld directs Colin Quinn in Colin Quinn Long Story Short - the one-man theatrical show moving to Broadway after a successful run off-Broadway. Comically channeling the demise of great world empires, Colin Quinn uses his "articulate brand of comedy" in taking audiences through an uproarious history of the world in 75 minutes. From his personification of Caesar as the original Italian mobster to his complaints about Ancient Greece and Antigone giving way to Costco and Snooki, Quinn is at his satirical best, taking on the attitudes, appetites and bad habits that toppled the world's most powerful nations. Colin Quinn Long Story Short proves that throughout human history, the joke has always been on us.

The first commercial for the production - in the form of a smear campaign - has been released. Click below for a first look!

Preview performances begin at the Helen Hayes Theatre on Friday, October 22nd and will officially open on Tuesday, November 9th. The production will play through Saturday, January 8th. The Helen Hayes box office, located at 240 West 44th Street, will open on October 12th. For more information, visit www.colinquinnlongstoryshort.com.
