Festival Director and Founder Terence Mulligan says, "We are excited to have Colin Quinn back, he’s such a great storyteller. He was born with the Irish wit and charm, but he does it with a New York sensibility. He still takes the train to his gigs, which says a lot about him.
"Rounding out the Fest is local Irish comedian Aiden O’Kelley. Aiden is a rising star in the NYC comedy circuit. Also on the bill is legendary comic John Mulrooney, who is an old school pro, I've never seen anyone work a room like him!"
CraicFest is funded by the Cultural Immigrant Initiative from the City of New York and Council Member Julie Won.
