Robert Dubac’s THE MALE INTELLECT: AN OXYMORON?

Thur–Sat, Apr 23–25 • 8 pm

On a quest to answer the age-old question, “What do women want?” Robert Dubac morphs into five hysterical boneheads, each offering sidesplitting advice on bridging the gender gap—all while drinking a beer. The New York Times calls it “Hilarious … a one man tour de force!” It’s the funniest hour you’ll spend with one man.
