LAS VEGAS - nvtip -- "The thing I miss most about performing is seeing people smile and hearing their laughter. Laughter can be a great healing tool and it's important to our mental health", said Las Vegas Comedian Don Barnhart.  "They say that laughter is the best medicine and we need it now more than ever."

During the Pandemic shutdown, Barnhart kept busy by creating his Joe Exotic, Tiger King impression which got him listed alongside actor Rob Lowe and The Tonight Show Host comedian Jimmy Fallon as the top Tiger King impersonators in the world.

Fellow comedian Wendy Liebman suggested Don should do a Tiger King parody, so Barnhart took her advice creating the character which has been blowing up all over the internet.  Barnhart started playing around with the voice, borrowing his wife's jewelry and just happened to have a drawer full of wigs from his days doing characters at the Second City Conservatory.

"I've always loved playing characters and try to incorporate those into my standup," Barnhart explained.  Don has a new standup comedy special, The Spinal Disintegration of Man on the Dry Bar Comedy Application and is working on a sitcom and one man show based on his standup.
