LOL WITH IT: Colin Quinn in Long Story Short

Every Friday, Ryan Carey takes a look at who and what’s giving Philly the giggles …

As we touch on in this week's Agenda section, Colin Quinn's one man Broadway show, Long Story Short, traces the fall of all great civilizations, shining a light on the fact that we're repeating all the same mistakes. The former SNL Weekend Updater wanted to do an act with a consistent theme, and his long time friend Jerry Seinfeld got on board to direct what he calls a "history of the world in 75 minutes." Check out this video of some of what you'll get at his performance. 

June 29-July 10, $51-$65, Suzanne Roberts Theatre, 480 S. Broad St., 215-985-0420, philadelphiatheatrecompany.org.
