The Musion show include the ‘Transatlantic Busk,’ where professional and student artists in London and Montreal performed music, song, comedy and dance live to the audience in Orlando. Each performance was followed by a collection hat being passed around for the audience to deposit a token of their appreciation. Artists will be paid their busk returns immediately – in line with true busking tradition.
