Hello hello.
We’re The Bearded Company.
An improv company in Minneapolis + Los Angeles
Fully improvised adventures on stage and online. One of the country’s leading narrative improv groups.
Loved locally. Recognized nationally.
Never scripted and always an adventure.
Since 2006, The Bearded Company have been taking audiences on fully improvised adventures. In 2014, the Beards expanded their reach into Los Angeles. The group has created many sold-out shows including Swords and Sorcery: The Improvised Campaign, Bearded Manor, and their mainstay Epic Adventures. They now also have a hit fantasy podcast, Break the Dice: The Improvised Campaign, created out of their D&D-based stage show. The Bearded Company also performs and teaches on tours and in festivals throughout the country and Canada. Whether they’re at their home theaters in LA or Minneapolis, on the road, or online, expect the unexpected.

LAUGHTER ON A DEADLINE
An Office
Join The Bearded Company as they bring their improvised storytelling into the workplace. Combining the profound drama and utter absurdity of work in America, this show will build from week to week with a cast of characters only a corporation could love. The office romances will be spicy, the competition will be cut-throat, and absolutely no work will get done.
Fridays at 7:30PM

The hit fantasy podcast
Break the Dice: The Improvised Campaign
Listen to all 6 campaigns of our hit fantasy podcast now! It’s an improvised adventure where the fate of our heroes rests on the roll of a twenty-sided die. Twenty is a spectacular success and one is a critical failure. Nerd or not, you’ll in for one hell of an adventure.
