BUILDING by Colin Quinn and Vincent Piazza
About This Event
BUILDING, by Colin Quinn and Vincent Piazza, is presented at Pioneer Works. The lineup pairs Quinn, an American stand-up comedian, actor and writer whose credits include Saturday Night Live and multiple comedy specials, with Vincent Piazza, an actor known for portraying Lucky Luciano on Boardwalk Empire and Tommy DeVito in Clint Eastwood's Jersey Boys, bringing both comedy and dramatic acting backgrounds to the event.
About BUILDING
BUILDING comes to Pioneer Works as a rock/pop performance framed around two familiar New York voices. Colin Quinn brings the cadence of stand-up and long-form social commentary shaped in the city’s clubs and on Saturday Night Live, while Vincent Piazza arrives with an actor’s attention to character and power, informed by his work on Boardwalk Empire. The piece tracks how institutions and reputations get constructed, then defended. It lands as a portrait of civic mythmaking, told with restraint rather than slogans.
