"Boiling with comedic energy, Five Man Job is an assault on the comedic senses.
They are brilliantly playful and one of my favorite groups in the country!"

Dan Hetzel

Dan Hetzel has been called many things: an asshole, a charltan even blistering idiot. But none capture what he really is...a dick. A huge dick. Dan Hetzel is one of the biggest dicks you will ever meet. Ever. Think of the biggest dick you know. Your boss, uncle maybe those dicks that keep parking in front of your driveway. Dicks one and all, but combine those dicks into one towering dick and they still can't stand in the shadow of the world's biggest dick...Dan Hetzel. Don't even try to talk to him. Seriously. You'll be lucky to walk away with your teeth or virginity intact. Dan Hetzel spits, cusses and pulls hair out by the roots when he fights and loathes human contact. There's a new dick in town. The biggest and baddest. Don't try looking him directly in the eye.

Best,

Dan " Dickles" Hetzel

P.S.

Piss off!!

Lauren Anderson

In St. Louis Park where Lauren was born and raised, on the playground was where she spent most of her days... When a couple of guys who were up to know good, started makin' trouble in her nieghborhood. She got in one little fight and her mom got P.O.'d. She said "You're movin off to college in Mankato"

She graduated with a B.S. degree in theatre. Yes. A bachelor of science in theatre. Lauren hyppothesized her way through many a crappy musical to get it, too.
Upon moving back to MPLS in 2001, she vowed she would never rest until she found the six-fingered man and avenged her father's death. But in the meantime, she worked for CLIMB theatre as an actor/educator for two years, and completed her improv training at the Brave New Workshop partially under Butch Roy's abusive tutelage.

Lauren can also be seen in other improv groups in the Twin Cities such as; Foterson, 123 IMPROV! as well as the mainstage cast of the Brave New Workshop

Butch Roy

Butch has been improvising since 1997, after graduating from the Brave New Institute.

In 2001 Five Man Job was born and has since spread their unique brand of "twitch-prov" all over the country, appearing at the Atlanta, Miami, Los Angels and Chicago Improv Festivals.

Butch is also the current Technical Director of the Brave New Workshop and has provided technical direction and technical assistance for numerous shows at the BNW from Jesse Goes to Hollywood (1998) to Martha Stewart: Prison Vixen (2003).

If you're lucky you can catch Butch on the street at the Renaissance Festival, where he plays the court jester. If you're really lucky he won't catch you on the street at the Renaissance Festival where he plays the court jester.

Sid Vicious was innocent.
