Independent Journalism in Denver Needs You
We need to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Imagine asking a roomful of people to scream out a name and location for your play. Add character, plot and theme, then knead and stretch until you’ve got (hopefully) a discernable beginning, middle and end. Got it? Now do this without rewrites, without rehearsals, without anything except your wits and — oh, yeah — make sure you’re funny and convincing and absolutely natural. That’s the basic layout for Bovine Metropolis Theater’s Play Incubator, which starts tonight at 7:30 p.m. and continues every Wednesday through August 29.
“We consider this the ultimate culmination of improv,” says producer and actor Linnea Brutlag. “It’s totally unscripted, totally unrehearsed, but it all comes together to make sense in the end. We ask for the name of the play and the location. People yell things out, and we take whoever is loudest.”
Tickets are $8; Bovine is at 1527 Champa Street. For more information, go to www.bovinemetropolis.com.
Wednesdays, 7:30 p.m. Starts: July 11. Continues through Sept. 26, 2007
