    What makes it fun

    The Bird Comedy Theater is Kansas City's Comedy Crossroads! Every week, the Bird Comedy Theater in the historic Hemingway Building hosts improv, sketch, stand-up, and other performances. Because our concerts feature mature content, minors must be accompanied by an adult. Our in-house bar serves beer, wine, soft drinks, popcorn, and candy!

    Great place to see and perform improv comedy. The Thursday jam is a must if you are a performer and want to get to play with a variety of folks!

    Always fun. Always funny. Love improv comedy. If you want a good laugh check them. Especially Thursday night. Between The Jam and Open Mic you never know what will happen. But guaranteed to be hilarious.

    My bf and I have been to two shows now and loved both. One was a stand up and the other an improv night. Throughly impressed with both, you’d be crazy not to support KC’s local talent!!

    Go check it out. If you're reading this review, go check it out. Looking for something to do for a night in KC? Go check it out.

    Found this place on New Year's Eve with some friends on a whim. We left after watching for a bit to grab food, then came back to see the rest of the night and ring in the New Year. Awesome theater with a lot of hilarious groups performing. 1,000% recommend, if you have a free evening, go check it out.

    Drinks are well priced here too so it was a great place to hangout and relax for the night. They are celebrating their 1st year of being open soon too. I've forgotten the name of the host but he was hilarious too.

    I've also forgotten everyone else's names but I believe one of the Four Nathan's did a great 'sexy worm' impression that my friend group won't forget.
    Go check it out.

    They make everyone feel welcomed. Great place to take classes. I do the $10 drop in Saturday class frequently because I can't afford the big classes. Best teachers ever.

    Taking long form improv classes at the bird and I love it. It's a beautiful venue the teachers are great and it's a ton of fun. The shows are really funny too.

    This was such a fun time! The theater has a very welcoming and easygoing vibe in a cool, old building in the Crossroads. I got a nice pour of whiskey from the bar that I could drink at my seat during the show. I caught some stand-up and improv. The cast was so hilarious, my face hurt from laughing by the end of the show. It's a perfect place for either a date or a night out with friends. I will definitely be back soon!
