Get ready for an evening of magic and hilarity as award-winning juggler Guy Collins, AKA the Groovy Guy, puts on a show for the whole family at the Monument Arts & Cultural Center.

Tickets to his show at 7 p.m. March 1 are available at https://www.monumentcentervt.org/groovyguy.

Guy Collins is known for juggling unusual and even dangerous objects, often at the same time as balancing on a rope or riding a large unicycle. Magician Penn Jillette was so impressed by Guy's street show in Boston that he awarded him $10,000 and named him winner of the Travel Channel's talent show "Street Cred."

He began his career in the 1980s as a teen, juggling on the streets of Paris. Though born in the United States, he grew up in the U.K., where he did stints in circus school and performed his juggling act at Covent Garden market as well as theme parks in England and Europe.

Guy now resides in Bennington, from whence he travels the globe performing at fairs, festivals, and on cruise ships.

Guy's performance coincides with the MAC Center's annual Wellness Weekend, which takes place March 1 and 2. On March 1, he will lead a special workshop in juggling, which is among a variety of activities – yoga, cardio fitness, swing dancing, sound healing, and more – designed to rejuvenate the mind and body. Tickets for the Wellness Weekend are available at https://www.monumentcentervt.org/wellnessweekend.
