Theater for the Thirsty is husband and wife duo Jeremiah and Vanessa Gamble who have a passion for creating and performing original works. They’ve been sharing their entertaining, imaginative and soul stirring brand of theater throughout the country for the past twenty-six years. They portray over 100 different characters in their nine original shows–ranging from tone-deaf angels to cud-chewing cows. Once upon a time they graduated from Bethel University with degrees in theater and music.
As career theater professionals and full-time creatives, they do commercial work, film acting and voice overs, teach theater and voice, perform with other professional Twin Cities’ theater companies, and Jeremiah even wrote a children’s book. They have three kids, a menagerie of pets and make their home in Saint Paul, MN.
People say the nicest things…

This was the best theater I've seen. These two (or is it fourteen?) are fantastic craftspeople. I simply can't find enough kudos to express the way I felt.
