Road Trip - An Improvised Musical Comedy
Buckle up for a comedic journey unlike anything you've ever seen or heard before.
The premise is pretty simple. We start with a city to act as Point A and a city to act as Point B. Then Scott Pargot and James Buscher will improvise a hilarious journey between those points while John McLellan (from The Clintons and El Wencho) makes up songs that provide the soundtrack along the way.
Keep an eye out for live shows on our Facebook page, or listen any time on your favorite streaming service.
Improvised Book Club
Follow this small-town book club as they discuss books no one’s ever read and chart a literary path few are brave enough to travel. In this improvised comedy podcast you’ll experience the highlights of novels made up on the spot and step into the lives of a rag tag group of readers as odd as they are endearing.
Break out the boxed wine and finger sandwiches, cause it’s time for book club.
Live Shows
Improv Mining Co. performs live improv shows at our home, The Heath, in Helena, Montana. These shows are made up on the spot and tell hilarious stories in a variety ways.
We’ve performed improvised musicals, sketch reviews, two-man single-scene shows, and a ton of other forms. While we’re not playing live, we’ve got some fun improv comedy in the works, so follow us on facebook and stay tuned.

Just contact us, tell us the areas you'd like to address, and we'll build a workshop that's fun and filled with strategies you can put into practice immediately.
stuff for teachers
We love teachers. Some of us are teachers, some of us were teachers, and some of us may one day become teachers. We believe in the vital work teachers and school staff do for kids and our community. To express our appreciation for teachers we write and perform a totally original sketch comedy show for teachers every year. This show is a celebration of folks who work so hard for our community and don’t get nearly the thanks they deserve. So we try to say “thank you” in our little way. We also partner with schools through workshops like Improv for Teachers, Improv for Students, and the Creativity Project, which helps students develop emotional intelligence through creativity and improvisation. We’d love to perform our sketch show for your district and work with your school or classroom.
