Great for a Date, if You Dare

The Civic Center’s Temple Theatre continues to bring belly laughs to Des Moines with an ongoing stream of edgy comedic acts. Newest in its string of hilarious hits is, “The Male Intellect: An Oxymoron?” continuing through Sunday, April 29.
In this side-splitting one-man show, gifted actor/writer, Robert Dubac, ransacks his brain to answer the age old question, “What do women want?”
Unable to understand why his girlfriend has dumped him, the show opens with Dubac as Bobby tackling this question while recalling some not-so-wise advice he received growing up with five chauvinistic mentors. With a shrug of his shoulders, a hooding of his eyes or a crook of his neck Dubac seamlessly transfroms himself into these five alter egos; each offering their own brand of misguided advice.
“The show elicits big laughs from both sexes in waves of treble and bass” says The Los Angeles Times.
The Denver Post and Toronto Star both gave the show its highest four-star rating, raving “THE MALE INTELLECT is hilarious as it is thought-provoking…a brilliant show.”
See for yourself at The Temple for Performing Arts at 10th and Locust in Downtown Des Moines (map).
