An Impressive Line-Up of Stand-Ups Salute Colin Quinn on Opening Night of Long Story Short

Comedy A-listers lined up November 9 to take in the opening night of Colin Quinn’s solo show Long Story Short! This takedown of the world’s greatest empires—and the ridiculous human habits that led to their downfall—slashes and burns its way through the history books, from the Greeks and Romans to the British empire and beyond. Comedy darlings like Kathy Griffin and Joan Rivers joined Broadway faves like Matthew Broderick on the red carpet, and after the curtain fell at the Helen Hayes Theatre they all celebrated in style at Forty Four at Royalton with Quinn and Story director Jerry Seinfeld. Broadway.com chatted up the stars on this rib-tickling opening night – check out the video below!
