Testimonial
Both Kevin McShane and myself would like to thank both of you for letting us perform and be a part of The Twin Cities Improv Festival. I have been to many, many festivals over a ten-year span personally and may I say the TCIF is officially in the top five of improv festivals I have attended...The staff and crew was beyond professional, from the people at the box office…to the incredible technical staff, to the support of finding and procuring a piano player who was gifted and talented, straight down to bar staff who was friendly and courteous. The space was a sheer delight to perform on. All the shows were top quality every single night I attended, and I could not be more pleased with the after parties.

the Twin Cities fest is pretty doggone awesome!
one of my very favorites!

never been to this festival but the theatre there is really awesome. its big and its been full on the sunday shows ive played there in the past. plus, the people there are awesome. has a real austin vibe to the scene. good stuff.

Well, I have Minneapolis bias (I lived there for 3 years and loved it) - but this festival is great. GGG has been up there the last two years and enjoyed the heck out of ourselves (at least I did). The stage has multiple doors and a high platform off to one side (fun) and the people have been organized, friendly and accommodating.

Plus, last year I got to watch old Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom's Greatest Hits with Sarah Tufts last year and noticed the film quality didn't change between 1963 and 1983. Why is this?

Neither here nor there. TCIF is much fun.

YAY! You should come!

IFE has totally submitted - bringing back Cochise! - and hope that everyone else does, too. Austin represent!

(Also, I visited Minneapolis for the first time on a tour earlier this year, and it's a totally sweet city with tons of awesome improv. Visit if you can!)

Brockman, that might have been our delirium getting in the way... We are owls after all!

Architecture, improv, summer weather that doesn't try to melt your brain, lakes, The Mall of AMERICA. It's awesome.

I also have lived in and love Mnpls, MN -- for more reasons than just living there. One of them was discovering improv & this festival AFTER I'd left!!! Arg! MN could have been my home, were it not for the shortage of game companies there. Would welcome the op to go back -- any day. Hope lots of AIC peeps get to go and learn how great it is there.
