Eric Farone

Eric has been doing Improv for almost 20 years, and most of it in Denver. He started learning improv in Chicago at The Second City, IO, Players Workshop, and at the Annoyance Theater. He then moved back to continue his exploration of the art. He directed and owned HeadGames for a time and then started the Acme Comedy Players. Four years later Eric and his wife Denise Maes founded the Bovine Metropolis Theater. They have been in business for over 10 years and operating the space at 1527 Champa for the last 8 years. He would like to thank everyone for visiting the site and invite you to come down to the theater for a good laugh.

Vivian Geselle

A graduate of the Bovine's 33rd class, Vivian has been part of 5 sketch shows at the Bovine as an Asst. Director, cast, and understudy. Currently you'll find her playing and awarding the bell to the fast and funny improvisers at "On The Spot". She worked with ensemble casts in Denver, Chicago, and Puerto Rico, where she enjoyed the six year plan towards her B.A. in Theater. When not at the Bovine, she actually enjoys her day job. Vivian loves cheesecakes, rum and diet coke with a lime (don't forget the lime!), and a good glass of red wine, even if it gives her migraines. She thanks the Bovine Community and sends big hugs to Tony, her friends, and her scattered-all-over family.
