Darren Collins
Darren's first school assembly
performance occurred when he was in the 5th grade.
A juggler came to his school to talk about 'character'
and used Darren as a volunteer. Darren juggled in
front of the whole school as his peers chanted his name.
He was hooked!
Years later (1997)
Darren began traveling the United States and abroad as a
full time performer and workshop teacher. He has
performed in thousands of schools, churches, and comedy
clubs in over 45 states and 13 countries. He has
authored several childhood education manuals and books.
Darren is our showcase
performer and the founder of Dallas Performers. |

Steven
Collins
Steven is our "heavyweight" speaker
for High Schools and youth centers on "drug resistance"
and "adversity" topics. He is a been-there,
done-that type of man. Incarcerated for most of his
adult years in some of the country's toughest prisons,
Steven has been in recovery from drug addiction for over
six years. From his own life experiences, Steven
teaches 'drug resistance', and 'overcoming adversity'
seminars at the prisons he once inhabited, as well as
youth and adult rehabilitation centers, schools and
colleges. Steven spent over 11 years in various
state prisons, and his powerful message is guaranteed to
connect with your youth.
