Herschel is a quickly rising improv group comprised of talented individuals that hail from all over the United States. It is in the city of New York where they have all united with the same goal of providing intelligent, envelope pushing improvisation. They are Michael Cirelli, Nathan Clancy, Gary De Noia, Lucas Hazlett, Erick Hellwig & Melanie Minichino.

They frequently perform to sold out crowds in Manhattan’s People’s Improv Theater in addition to many other venues throughout New York City. They also have been official selections to both the Toronto and Sketchprov 2010.
Herschel is comprised of improvisers who have been featured on house teams at Improv Olympic in Chicago and The People’s Improv Theatre in New York City. Also making appearances on television, you may have seen them in such shows as The Sopranos and Gossip Girl.
However at our shows nobody gets whacked or has lavish rooftop parties: unless the suggestion calls for it.
They are known for their trademark “Glory” opening which serves as the catalyst for their high - energy, emotionally charged, physical and unpredictable scene work. Herschel welcomes you to come experience a live show and see for yourself.
