GOOD CAMEL COMEDY THEATER

using humor to speak truth to power

Good Camel Live is a night of true storytelling and improv about the world we are actually living in. A featured storyteller takes the stage for an extended set, then the Good Camel ensemble improvises off what they just heard and off the week's headlines. Nothing is prewritten. Nothing is safe. Play honest, not clever. September's featured storyteller is Lisa Skjefte. Good Camel Comedy Theater is a Minneapolis-based performance company that uses humor to speak truth to power. Founded by John Gebretatose, an Eritrean American improviser, producer, and educator, co-founder of Blackout Improv and founder of the Black and Funny Improv Festival, and former Director of Diversity and Inclusion at HUGE Theater. Good Camel centers BIPOC artists, political comedy, and storytelling, and holds a residency at Bryant Lake Bowl.

No scripts. No safety net. Just bold, fast,
made-up comedy that hits in real time.

The Twin Cities’ fiercest BIPOC improvisers take the stage for a high-energy showdown where pride, skill, and creative nerve are on full display. All night long, performers battle through lightning-fast games, building scenes from nothing and taking big swings in front of a live crowd that can feel the tension rising.

The audience watches it unfold. The energy builds. At the end of the show, the cast votes. Each performer chooses the improviser who impressed them most that night. No mid-show eliminations. No gimmicks. Just one final decision. One crown. Chosen by peers.

A space where BIPOC artists lead, create, and celebrate each other on their own terms. Fast. Funny. Fearless. Come for the battle.
