One of the most notable comedy experiences that I have had in awhile was when I reviewed the comedy show at the Comedy Barn in Pigeon Forge, TN during a recent excursion to find comedy outside the traditional comedy club scene.

For those who don’t know, Pigeon Forge is the home of Dollywood—Dolly Parton’s theme park. But I didn’t go there for amusement rides. I went there specifically to explore shows known or recognized by their comedy.

The Comedy Barn offers a “family friendly” show. The show is a comedy variety show that incorporates aspects of stand-up comedy, music and variety performances as well as audience participation segments.

Well, the show was hilarious and very well done. Certainly not your typical stand-up comedy club fair. And the place was packed.

Side Note:  The Comedy Barn provided 10% discount coupons for the Happy Days Diner right next door—fantastic burgers and friendly staff!

I would highly recommend that anyone who plans to visit the Pigeon Forge area — make sure that you don’t miss the show at the Comedy Barn. You won’t be disappointed.
