I was on KSTP-TV’s Twin Cities Live with a roundup of the best places for standup and improv comedy in Minnesota.
Acme Comedy Company
North Loop neighborhood of Minneapolis
Monday is Open Mic Night — admission is free!
Plan a bit of time to find parking on the street; download the Minneapolis parking app so you can pay from your phone and get alerts when your meter is about to expire
HUGE Improv Theater
Uptown neighborhood of Minneapolis
Improv comedy 6 nights a week (closed Tuesdays)
Tickets are usually $10, with some shows ‘pay what you like’
Cinema Grill
New Hope
Check the schedule in advance as they don’t always have a show
Big names go through the community of New Hope — Todd Bridges, Ben Bailey (“Cash Cab”)
Stevie Ray’s Comedy Cabaret
Inside the Chanhassen Dinner Theatres, Chanhassen
Shows Friday and Saturday nights
Similar format to “Whose Line is it Anyway?”
If you’re celebrating a birthday or anniversary, make sure to let the troupe know!
Honorable mention
Brave New Workshop (sketch and improv comedy), Downtown Minneapolis
Mixed Blood Theatre, Cedar-Riverside neighborhood of Minneapolis
