HUGE Improv Theater is a Minneapolis artist-led non-profit theater company founded in 2005 by improvisers Jill Bernard, Butch Roy, Nels Lennes, Joe Bozic and Mike Fotis, dedicated to long-form improvisational theater.
HUGE’s presence has accelerated the growth of improvised theater and comedy in the Twin Cities, training thousands of new improvisers since its founding, expanding audience access from 56 to 500+ performances annually, and teaching 600+ students each year. In June 2023, HUGE closed its original location at 3037 Lyndale Avenue, after purchasing its own building at 2728 Lyndale Ave, Minneapolis.
