ELFIE SHTICK to Bring Goofy Holiday Spirit to Bovine Metropolis Theater

Bovine Metropolis Theater invites you to revel in the goofy complexity of the holidays in Elfie Shtick: A Holiday Sketch Comedy. We've cut a deal with St. Nick so that some Elves on the Shelf don't have to report to the big guy up North. Instead, by day, they'll keep a close eye on the city streets near 16th and Champa and, by night, they'll host our show as audiences laugh their way through the holidays with original sketch comedy.

Amid all the tinsel and jingle bells-what are the holidays really for? Peace on earth? To find the inner strength to have one peaceful dinner with family? Just to laugh and spread holiday cheer? Elfie Shtick thinks it's all about laughs and fun. The show will magically appear the Friday after Thanksgiving and disappear the Friday before Christmas.

This show isn't a bah-humbug-elf-bashing-Grinchy sneer at the holidays. "This is a holiday show for people who like the holidays," says director Eric Farone. "What makes this show different is that it's a modern, non-snarky show. Elfie Shtick is a joyful, funny, modern look at the holidays."

"There is some stress that goes along with family get togethers and shopping for gifts," says cast member Kat Bond, "I hope to shed light on the wacky, irreverent side of those things. This show is high energy and will pump you up. We have been working on a late night or variety show vibe, so it will be an action packed show full of movement and music."

Need a place to take the kids while Santa gets ready? Or a place to entertain the visiting in-laws? Elfie Shtick: A Holiday Sketch Comedy is perfect for everyone. Bovine Metropolis Theater prides itself in creating comedy that is smart and from the heart, so that all ages can enjoy comedy and find a place to relax. It's an ideal way to spend a memorable evening laughing with your friends and loved ones.

Expect over 20 original sketches, songs and dance numbers. Most of the show's cast are veterans from previous Bovine holiday sketch comedy shows and there's no shortage of talent. Cast members create the sketches, songs, and dances through the art of improvisation and collaborative workshops. This will be the Bovine Metropolis' 41st original sketch comedy show.

Elfie Shtick: A Holiday Sketch Comedy plays Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 8:00 p.m., starting Friday, November 25 until Friday, December 23. Shows will play Tuesday through Friday on the final week before Christmas. Tickets are $20 online and $22 at the door. Order now, so you don't have to remember one more thing during the holidays!

Established in 1996, Bovine Metropolis Theater is the first dedicated school and theater for improvisation in the Rocky Mountain region.
