The Broadway stage is home to the art of acting. Few stand up comedy shows are destined to find success. Quinn is one of the rare comics that have been able to pull off the feat and run with it.

For those who have seen the comics more political work on "Tough Crowd" expect the same witty, razor sharp delivery that leaves you in stitches.
