Don Bryan

The need for laughter and entertainment is probably more prevalent today than at any time in history. So many industries are finding themselves in a state of constant change and confusion that they forget the importance of the camaraderie of laughter. If you're ready for some new entertainment, there's some light and laughter at the end of the comedy tunnel.

Don Bryan, Canada's premier ventriloquist / humorist, has been a well-kept secret in North America for the past 30 years. As one of the most highly-acclaimed ventriloquists in the world, his fast paced, hysterically funny and completely customized presentations combine to delight even the most jaded audiences. With an exceptional talent for researching and tailoring his performances to an audience's specific requirements, Don Bryan is a rare talent in an industry of "can openers". Each performance is peppered with regional, political and industry humour, and the outrageous situations his characters can drag the audience into will leave them howling in the aisles, and sometimes... falling out of their chairs.

Don and cast of characters help audiences find the joy of the "bellylaugh" again. We can't help laugh at ourselves and the trials of everyday life. After all... didn't someone say, "To err is human, to laugh is utterly divine"!

    Custom-Tailored Comedy

    Don's long time partner and main character is the unforgettable Mr. Noseworthy, a rather rambunctious, but loveable old curmudgeon. He was created by Don over 35 years ago and is one of one of 4 principle characters. His other characters include: the sweet old Miss Annie, a naive bumpkin Chester Field and a tired old buzzard, aptly named, Bird.

    A unique part of his show involves Miss Annie and Noseworthy actually appear to come alive, talking and moving on their own, without Don being near or touching them. This is a fun surprise that never fails to bring gasps of disbelief from an audience caught off guard.

    During his performance, Don interacts with the audience involving them in the show. He even creates various characters in the person of an audience volunteer, resulting in a hilarious and laugh filled routine.

    As a presenter, Don incorporates his characters into the event and provides comic relief, with humorous observations that delight the audience and add a sparkle to any special event. His performances are peppered consistently with regional, political and industry humour to customize the show.
