Start the new year with some laughs as Metrowest fan favorite DON WHITE stops in to feature at the 730 pm, Wednesday January 4, 2012 Amazing Comedy Open Mique Show at the Amazing Things Arts Center in downtown Framingham.
Comic, singer-songwriter, storyteller and all around entertainer, Don White is one of New England’s most popular performers. His sensitive songs, thought provoking, then hilarious stories mixed with stand-up stuff make for a complete entertainer.
The Lynn native and host of his own weekly show in Lynn, is one of the best spokespeople for community art centers. He has been a great friend to Amazing, performing in many settings, often to sold-out crowds, as well as now teaching our periodic comedy classes. Don has taught a number of our miquers.

Acclaimed singer songwriter Christine Lavin who tours with Don says of him, "Don is not only a consummate professional, but he is very involved with our community of singer-songwriters and is someone who many of us seek out for advice or just good company. Don is also one of the funniest guys in the busness.”
