If you haven't seen Colin Quinn live you're in for a treat. Named one of Comedy Central's 100 Greatest Stand Up Comedians of All Time, the quintessential New York Comedian is at his best alone on stage with a microphone and an audience. Best known as the anchorman on Saturday Night Live Weekend Update, Colin Quinn can be seen in the recurring role of Hermie on HBO's Girls, opposite Amy Schumer in Trainwreck, and in Grown Ups with Adam Sandler. On the heels of his wildly successful Broadway and off-Broadway one-man shows Irish Wake, Long Story Short, and The New York Story (directed by Jerry Seinfeld), Quinn appears at The Lyric in One in Every Crowd.
