 Collin Eschenburg and Matthias Fisher were born in East-Berlin, at the time Germany was split between the Federal Repulic of Germany (West Germany) and the German Democratic Republic (East Germany). When they were 15 and 19 respectively, Collin and Matthias enrolled in Berlin's State Circus School. There, they were trained in all basic circus disciplines, including acrobatics, juggling, ballet, and trapeze.
-After graduation in 1986, they embarked on a two-year tour of the USSR with the East-German [[Jakob Busch|Circus Busch]], and they used that time to develop their comedy routines. Back in their homeland, the Collins Brothers appeared with their comedy acts in various variete theaters and television shows. Then, in 1990, they suddenly found themselves in a wall-free Berlin, and in a country where West and East didn't mean anything anymore.

 In a bold move, they immediately presented their trapeze act&mdash;which was only one of their numerous comedy routines&mdash;to the selection committee of the [[International Circus Festival of Monte-Carlo]], and were accepted right away. They were the first East-German act to participate in the competition! To the public and the professionals gathered under Monaco's big top in Janauary 1991, their hilarious (and technically remarkable) act was also an instant sensation: They received the ''Organ Show-Business award'' and, more importantly, numerous international contracts.

-The Collins Brothers have since worked extensively in Europe, North and South America, Australia, and Asia. Among many other prestigious venues, they have been featured at [[Circus Kronebau]] in Munich; the WinterGarten Variete Theater in Berlin; [[Circus Flic-Flac]] in Germany; the 1994 production of [[Cirque du Soleil]] at [[Circus Knie]] in Switzerland; the [[Big Apple Circus]] and Teatro ZinZanni in the United States; Palazzo Variete in Germany and Austria; and the ''Millenium Show'' at the Casino Palladium in Mallorca, Spain, in 1999. They have appeared in several television shows in Europe, and were awarded the Comedy Prize at the ARD Television's ''Traumtänzer Festival'' in 2006.
