Mo comes from Minneapolis Minnesota. Started taking improv training at Dudley Riggs Brave New Workshop in 1984. Quickly moved in to the touring Co. and then the Resident Co. where she wrote and performed sketch and improv. Mo spent 2 years (89', 90') living in Orlando FL. wher she helped to found the Pleasure Island Comedy Warehouse improv show. The first all improvised show at Disney.
From 91-96 Mo Collins went back to her Minnesota roots to build a family and a more solid resume before heading out to Los Angeles in 97'. In June of 97', Mo packed up a truck, her 2 year old son, and headed out West. Within a year she landed her place on MAD TV where she created such memorable characters as Lorraine Swanson, Doreen Larkin, and Trina Moss...among many impressions as well. Since leaving MAD TV after 6 seasons she has found herself in varied TV and FILM projects. Mo is currently stepping into the world of stand-up and is taking it by storm! She is also in the process of filming a pilot for FOX which will hopefully be airing Midseason. (It is currently untitled). Look for Mo in the stand-up clubs, as well as a handful of upcoming films, and of COURSE....TV...........
