Armando, A Show for Lovers - 2012
A Valentine's Day Improv Comedy Show
Prepare for a tribute to love. “Armando, a Show for Lovers” is the Bovine Metropolis Theater’s way of celebrating Valentine’s Day, and more importantly, celebrating that wonderful emotion which binds us together.
Three couples in different stages of their love lives, will be brought on stage, and interviewed by the cast. Then a group of talented improvisers will bring all the joys and hilarity of their relationships to life on stage through improvisation.
Many of the cast members have had experience with this type of show while playing in the Bovine’s “Biography: Life as a Comedy” where the history and turning point of a person’s life is improvised on stage.
“My favorite thing about Armando is that we talk to real couples about their lives, and that is what fuels the improv for the night,” said Artistic Director, Eric Farone. “You will definitely see elements of your own relationship on stage.”
The Armando is a form of improvisation, created by Armando Diaz, an improvisation instructor from Chicago. The romantic language basis of the name inspired Bovine Metropolis Theater to use the form for their Valentine’s Day show.
The Armando, like other improvisation, is great at bringing people together. The couples will no doubt feel closer by the end of the show, and the free rose with the couple’s tickets are a great bonus. If you want to deepen your love life, there’s no better way than to see what excellent comedy love can make.
“Armando, a Show for Lovers” has a one night showing on February 11, at 8 pm. Tickets are $45 for a couple, or $25 for an individual. Each couple will get a rose. Tickets can be purchased online, over the phone and at the box office. Bovine Metropolis Theater is located at 1527 Champa Street in the heart of the Denver Theatre District. The Bovine is an improv organization that teaches and performs theatrical improvisation, the art of accepting the unknown gracefully.
