Comedian Don Friesen

Doors Open At 7L30


Don Friesen:
Fresh, frenetic and self-deprecating to a fault, Don Friesen’s comedy is outrageously physical yet thoroughly relatable. Don’s willingness to admit his flaws and exploit them for maximum comedic potential has a way of not only entertaining, but tapping into the humanity in all of us. It’s a uniquely fun, clever and clean act with an incredibly broad appeal that has earned him rave reviews and die-hard fans throughout the country.

Don has won the prestigious San Francisco International Comedy Competition twice – the only comedian in the 30-year history of the competition to do so. Other career highlights include garnering such a great response on his first network TV appearance – the Martin Short Show – that they held the audience over and had him perform a second act, opening for the Counting Crows and Goo Goo Dolls for crowds of 8,000 and 10,000, playing the Pacific Amphitheatre with Bill Engvall and Craig Shoemaker, and taping his concert DVD “Inexplicable” in front of a sold-out crowd at the Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal and TBS’ The Comedy Festival in Las Vegas. Don can be heard regularly on the KLOS 5:00 Funnies and XM Sirius Satellite Radio.

Don also has a one-hour Showtime Special - Don Friesen: Ask Your Mom - airing now.
