Overview
Critical Role, the entertainment media company behind the hit actual play series of the same name, announced the 2027’s live shows for The Nerdy Best Friends Tour. Brennan Lee Mulligan brings Campaign 4’s Aramán to Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Sam Riegel and Matthew Mercer will also each take a turn as Game Master, leading the Darrington Brigade in Toronto and Bells Hells in Stockholm. What began as a simple home game among friends has turned into a worldwide community around Critical Role. The Nerdy Best Friends Tour takes that shared experience on the road, inviting Critters (the Critical Role fanbase) and newcomers alike to watch the cast roleplay LIVE! Each show will feature a different party, Game Master, and standalone story, making it an easy jumping-on point without needing to catch up on every campaign. Whether you’re reuniting with familiar characters or meeting them for the first time, there’s a new adventure waiting at every stop!
“With a new Game Master and cast of characters at each stop, fans in every city will get to experience a different side of Critical Role,” said Brittany Walloch-Key, Critical Role’s Director of Events. “We can’t wait to reunite with our nerdy best friends, both at the table and in the audience!”
Step into the world of Aramán as Game Master Brennan Lee Mulligan leads members of the Campaign 4 cast on a new adventure, live on stage.
Critical Role is one of the fastest growing independent media companies in the world, starting as a roleplaying game between friends and evolving into a new kind of organization dedicated to storytelling, community and imagination. As Critical Role continues to expand the unique universe it has created, with complex stories set in an ever-evolving world, it also continues to create more ways for fans to experience the brand, including both fiction and nonfiction books on the New York Times Best Sellers list, comic books, graphic novels, collectibles, tabletop and roleplaying games, podcasts, live events, and animated series including the critically acclaimed The Legend of Vox Machina and Emmy Award-winning The Mighty Nein, both airing exclusively on Prime Video. Additionally, Critical Role has launched two major initiatives: an official 501(c)(3) non-profit, the Critical Role Foundation (CRF), and a tabletop game publishing company, Darrington Press. With an original cast of award-winning veteran voice actors who are also co-founders of the company, including Matthew Mercer, Ashley Johnson, Marisha Ray, Taliesin Jaffe, Travis Willingham, Sam Riegel, Laura Bailey, and Liam O'Brien, Critical Role is committed to ensuring anyone can discover its stories, characters, and community.
