Comedy at Craft: Don Gavitte

Don Gavitte is a Portland based comedian who has been teaching high school history since 1991. On his 50th birthday in 2018, he thought trying stand-up comedy would make a better mid-life crisis than buying a motorcycle. This decision has led him to regular sets in some of Portland’s finest dive bars and he’s earned countless drink tickets telling jokes about being a dad, a teacher, and the most tender of modern lovers. Don regularly performs at the Broadway Comedy Club in NYC and was selected to be part of the 2022 Sixth City Comedy Festival in Cleveland. He also headlines & produces The Teacher Show which has sold out rooms all over the Pacific Northwest and is currently one of Willamette Week’s “must see” shows in Portland. $15 at Bendticket.com or through Sam at the bar. $20 the day of the show at the door.
