Feedback
- I went into booking with Gigmasters blind. I did not know the company at all. WOW! I can't say enough about how outstanding the performance was that Don did for our group. Prior to our event he was in contact with me, always helpful and courteous. He came through with everything that he promised at our event. Our entire group greatly enjoyed his work and I still hear them talking about parts of his show that they especially liked. He will make you laugh, bring back good memories and uplift your spirits. I would recommend him a thousand times over!! -- Susan W, Plymouth, IN, 11/14/2009
- The two words that best describe Don Tersigni's performance are "Standing Ovation". Don's humor was fantastic and his voice impressions were a HUGE success. This was our first annual event, and we are so pleased to have had Don kick it off. People of all ages attended, and loved Don. If you are looking for an entertainer that will exceed all your expectations, choose Don Tersigni. -- Teddie L, Spillville, IA, 2/23/2008
- FANTASTIC!!! This is the third time we have booked Don for a special event. We keep inviting him back because we know our staff and their guests will be rolling on the floor with laughter. That is a very important commodity these days. He is a funny, talented professional who is consistent & a genuinely kind man. Don has made a special point to meet certain requests we have had in the past and each time he entertains for our group seems better than the last. Expect to hear rave reviews for days after your event. It is a rare gift he shares when he makes you smile, laugh and leaves you feeling a little bit happier about life. -- Laura S, Battle Creek, MI, 7/31/2009
- Don did a wonderful job, he was professional, fun, and hilarious. Don even involved some of the audience in his comedy, and in no way did he offend anyone. Everyone had a great time, and I am still getting compliments from the staff.
We have already recommended Don to some of our other locations, for their future holiday parties, and will continue to recommend him to others.
If you are looking for a great comedian that caters to all age levels, Don is the one to call. You won't be disappointed!
Thanks again Don!

- Don's performance was OUTSTANDING! His impressions were fabulous! He did a variety mix of comedy, song and impressions that made his performance unique. He was personable and easy to work with and I would highly recommend him to anyone! Hats off to Don for making our 1st event a success.
