Buzz Collins has been leaving audiences mesmerized for over 30 years now – from the resorts of the Caribbean to multiple headlining runs at Planet Hollywood, Las Vegas. Much of Buzz’s schedule is filled with corporate engagements. However, in light of recent events throughout the world, he wanted to create an entertainment experience for all audiences that would showcase how connected we truly are. How our similarities far outweigh our differences is the theme that’s inspired his new stage show, “Connections." Truly a display of mystifying mental phenomena, Buzz’s performances are filled with laughter and unforgettable moments where audience members become a part of what can only be described as a mind bending experience! Despite a sometimes intense performance schedule that takes Buzz to locales throughout Canada and the US, he can also be heard weekday mornings as host of the Rock 107 Morning Buzz in Belleville, Ontario.
