Blood and Mints - Bovine House Team
Once known as "There will be blood and complimentary mints after the show", the group soon realized that half of their performance time was taken up by their introduction and thus, in the spirit of modern corporate practices, chose to downsize.

Jaimie fell in love with improv during college when she took a theater class where she learned and performed the Harold. She then spent years away from the theater jumping out of airplanes, travelling around Europe, having babies (well one beautiful baby girl), getting married, getting divorced, eating milk duds, and working at different HR companies.

Lannie Pihajlic

Lannie looks like a cherub & had been doing improv/community theatre for a few years when he stumbled into the Bovine. Here he found structure (what's this?), great teachers and the warm embrace of Denver's improv community. He's gotten real cozy-like ever since. By day he teaches art to kids & biology to adults. He enjoys walks on the fine beaches of Colorado as much as cuddling on the couch watching a movie. He is tickled pink to play with the Bovine's only egg-laying mammalian house team, the Playpus Surprise & in Deadliest Sketch, the graduation show of the Bovine School's 53rd Graduating Class.

Lauren von Engeln

Improv is where Lauren's spirit lives. We're not saying she's a ghost. Although, we are fairly convinced that she has supernatural powers (like losing her keys, consistently burning toast, and breaking everything she touches). A trained actor from the Denver area, her improv journey is rooted in the Bovine Metropolis Theatre. When she's not rehearsing or performing with Blood and Mints, she's trying to understand the meaning of life. She is PUMPED to be part of Season 3 of Denver's Next Improv Star opening February 18th 2012.
