Colin Quinn's Long Story Short plays its final performance at Broadway's Helen Hayes Theatre.
Comically channeling the demise of great world empires, Colin Quinn takes audiences through his version of the 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 uses satire to take on the attitudes, appetites and bad habits that toppled the world's most powerful nations.
