Brave New Workshop
Comedy · Minneapolis, MN
About
Not your typical improv theater, Brave New Workshop is the nation's longest-running satirical comedy theater, founded in 1958. This Minneapolis institution features original plays, improv, and variety shows ranging from family-friendly to adult-only, the latter sometimes with LGBTQ+ themes. You'll find sharp, timely comedy that keeps locals coming back. Classes and workshops are also available if you want to try your hand at improv.
Located in Downtown Minneapolis, the theater has a cozy, intimate vibe. Shows are popular, so arriving early helps. On weekends, the box office stays open late, making it easy to grab last-minute tickets. If you're an arts enthusiast, consider pairing your visit with the Walker Art Center for a full afternoon of culture.
