Do you remember Robert Dubac from his hit one-man show The Male Intellect: An Oxymoron?.

I'm told hilarious, intelligent, provocative, and scorching, Robert Dubac’s new solo show Free Range Thinking is comedy on steroids. This time Dubac buckles us up for a fast-paced joy ride over the pot-holed highways of cultural hypocrisy. Armed with intelligent thinking and honest absurdity he crashes head first into the barriers of politics, religion and the media. And he’s not alone. With rapid-fire presentation, he portrays multiple hilarious characters. If you like your satire served up with a clever intelligent edge, don’t miss Robert Dubac’s Free Range Thinking. I'll be there with Mary this Saturday (Oct 30), runs through November

Saw Dracula at the DCPA tonight,  a powerful performance of a powerful story. Message is still as relevant today, maybe more so, as when  the play was written in the late 1800s as we were ramping up the scientific revolution, "there are things in heaven and earth that are not dreamed of in your philosophy"  basics that just don't lend themselves to understanding through the scientific method.

Made me very glad to be a Catholic.

Non-christians might find the play tedious and difficult if not impossible to understand. The Denver Post reviewer gave it a bad review.

If you take your spiritual life seriously, I say don't miss it! See more about the play and information about how to get tickets below.
