ON THE SPOT: NEW YEAR'S EVE Set for The Bovine Metropolis Theater, 12/31

It was a big year; we met Google Glasses and Jimmy Fallon debuted on "The Tonight Show," we saw everyone's version of the Ice Bucket Challenge and heard everyone's opinion of Kanye and Kim's Wedding. Come celebrate an eventful year with improv comedy at The Bovine Metropolis Theater in their annual "On The Spot" New Year's Eve celebration.

It gets cold outside celebrating New Year's, so stay inside and warm your funny bone until just moments before the big fireworks display. This year there are four showings on New Year's Eve and the evening shows are timed so that the audience can enjoy the warm laughs and still catch the fireworks displays at 9:00 and 12:00 midnight mere feet away from the front door of the Bovine. "On the Spot" performances are at 1:00 p.m., 4:00 p.m. (shows for families or those of us with an early bedtime!) 7:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.

This show is a great way to ring in the New Year, and is a great way to find entertainment downtown away from the swarms of New Year's revelers. On The Spot: New Year's Eve strikes a great balance between fun and gut-busting entertainment, and a very funny place to ring in 2015.

"Whose Line is it Anyway" is the most familiar version of game based improv, and many of the games in "On The Spot" are similar. And like "Whose Line..." this show features a cast of close friends. The cast is throwing a party for the audience complete with noisemakers, party hats, and a heck of a good time.

"The New Year's Eve show is always a blast." Artistic Director Eric Farone said. "It's not only a blast for the players, because the audience participates by giving suggestions, and any adventurous audience members can join the players onstage for a couple of games."

On The Spot on New Year's Eve plays Wednesday, December 31st at 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. for families, 7:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. at Bovine Metropolis Theater located at 1527 Champa Street in the heart of the Denver Theatre District. Tickets are $20 for the 1:00 and 4:00 p.m. show and $30 for the 7:00 and 10:00 p.m. show. All shows are for all ages.

Bovine Metropolis Theater is the first dedicated school and theater for improvisation in the Rocky Mountain region and teaches the art of accepting the unknown gracefully. For more information about Bovine Metropolis Theater, call 303-758-4722 or visit their web site at www.BovineMetropolis.com.
