"Disco Ball"
Was created when Actor & Celebrity Event planner Keith Collins was struck in the head by an actual disco ball at a then popular celebrity nightclub in NYC. When Collins recovered from severe injuries he wanted to turn his tragedy into a positive. Since then he played a character with Tourette Syndrome in the hit film “Games People Play NY” he decided to come public with his own personal struggles with the disorder. He then teamed up with the National Tourette Syndrome Association to launch a nationwide awareness campaign on TS. Collins will be featured in PSA adds nationwide in June of 2006.
