PATCHOGUE, NY — The Grammy Award-nominated stand-up comic Bobby Collins will take the stage of the Patchogue Theatre for the Performing Arts on Sept. 9.

Collins has "an ability to truthfully translate the human condition" and is best known for "exposing the humor of day-to-day situations, as well as serving up resplendent rants on world events," theatre officials said.

"Through precise physical timing and impeccable audience insight, he has honed his talents while performing from hole-in-the-wall clubs to sold-out theaters," officials said. "Bobby Collins’ rise to top headlining, comedic master was inevitable. His true dedication to his craft is what keeps his vibrant shows consistently sold out."
