Saturday Night Live alum Colin Quinn to perform

NEWTON — Colin Quinn will bring his comedy show Unconstitutional to the Newton Theatre on Saturday, July 26 at 8 p.m.

In Unconstitutional Colin Quinn tackles 226 years of American Constitutional calamities in 70 minutes. On May 25, 1787, 55 delegates in wigs and tights sat down to create a country from scratch. In 2014, Colin Quinn offers his unique comedic perspective on our national character. From predator drones to the Kardashians, he pulls no punches in asking if this is what the founding fathers planned.

Quinn, originally from Brooklyn, N.Y., is an actor and writer best known for his five year stint on Saturday Night Live and his work in the Adam Sandler films "Grown Ups" and "Grown Ups 2." He was also the sidekick on the late 80s MTV gameshow "Remote Control" and host of the Comedy Central series "Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn." He currently has a recurring role on the HBO series "Girls."

Tickets for Colin Quinn are $39 for premium seating, $34 for orchestra and $29 for balcony. Purchase tickets by visiting www.thenewtontheatre.com or contact the box office at 973-383-3700.
