Take a young boy born in the midwest; feed him a steady diet of comic books and monster magazines; plant him in front of a television screen showing an endless succession of horror and science fiction movies; let simmer until adulthood, and what have you got? The comedy of Don Reese.
Combining what THE CLEVELAND PLAIN DEALER calls “friendly ghoulishness” with “sparks-flying timing”, Don stakes out comic turf that is his and his alone, walking the fine line between reality and the twilight zone. It is an act that has taken him to over forty states and Canada, performing at clubs, colleges, corporate shows – even monster movie conventions. Don calls it “stand-up comedy for people who are tired of stand-up comedy”. You’ll call it hilarious.
