CAST

(in order of appearance)

BOBBY is in a HUGE state of confusion. Two weeks ago everything was perfect. He finally found the woman of his dreams. He made the commitment. They planned to get married. Then… she dumped him. Why? He’s been trying to figure that out for the past two weeks but his male dominant brain isn’t much help. The only thing he has figured out about women is that they’re female. He’s like most guys, everything he learned about women he learned from other men. Other men who are older and even more clueless. In his case, Bobby was tutored by the five chauvinists below.

THE CHAUVINISTS

THE COLONEL retired from the Army after being decorated four times for bravery. He is still active; he just fights a different battle, the battle of the sexes. He believes, “If you want to win the war, you need to lose a couple of battles.” He hasn’t won one yet.

JEAN-MICHEL is a foreign exchange student studying philosophy. He spends his mornings along the shores of Lake Loretta musing over how women, like all great lessons in life, reflect some facet of death. He prides himself in understanding everything about women. His answers, however, are so cryptic no one can understand them.

FAST EDDIE had his heart broken once and as a result has been cutting a swath of testosterone through the #me-too movement ever since. Fortunately for him, he oozes an animal instinct that attracts women like a ten-cent sale at Neiman’s. This allows him to keep his heart out of the picture which attracts them even more. Fast Eddie says, “Don’t ask me why nice guys don’t turn them on and bad boys do. They hate what’s good for them and love what they should hate. So I just give them what they love – something to hate. Works like a charm.” Fast Eddie is an endangered species.

OLD MR. LINGER resides at “Lapping Shores,” a retirement home nestled among the two-story maples on the west bank of Lake Loretta. Every afternoon at two o’clock the management lets him stroll out onto the dock and fish for a few hours. His infectious laugh can be heard echoing over the lake until sunset. Most people think him to be a bit daft since there are no fish in Lake Loretta. Others reckon he just has a great sense of humor.

RONNIE CABREZZI grew up fatherless in the Bronx, retreating to Lake Loretta with his mother and two sisters after a series of fights protecting their honor. He is a peaceful, sensitive man. His whole life is dedicated to taking care of women. He loves women. He just can’t figure them out, mainly because he barely has a high school education. To his credit Ronnie does try to be sensitive; he just doesn’t know how to spell it.

ROBERT DUBAC (Actor, Author) has bridged a career between acting, comedy and writing for decades. As an actor his film roles include Too Hip for the Room, After the Game, Cold Ground, Sketch Artist, Innocent Obsession and The Rookie.  His TV credits include the ABC soap opera Loving, Real Geezers of Beverly Hills, Growing Pains, Life Goes On, Jack and Mike and Diff’rent Strokes. However, as you have noticed, he gave it up years ago, choosing theater over film and TV.

In addition to THE MALE INTELLECT: AN OXYMORON? he has written two other solo shows, THE BOOK OF MORON and STAND-UP JESUS. He also directed and co-wrote H@PPYVILLE, a new avant-garde solo comedy starring Dave Shirley. DVDs of THE MALE INTELLECT: AN OXYMORON? and THE BOOK OF MORON can be purchased in the lobby or online. (Yes, he knows DVD players are outdated.) His first audio record BABBLE OF THE SEXES is available on 800 Pound Gorilla Records and can be downloaded on iTunes. You can also get one in the lobby.

LAUREN SINCLAIR (Feminine Voice) is happy to provide her voice to the production of THE MALE INTELLECT: AN OXYMORON?  However, Ms. Sinclair is an accomplished actress and author in her own right. Not only can she be heard here she can be seen in films such as Face/Off, Duty Dating, Wing Commander, Spoon River and Three Wishes. Ms. Sinclair also plays Mrs. Dubac in real life.

Special Thanks to: William Franzblau, Randy Weeks, Jules Belkin and Barry Gabel.

Extra Special Thanks to: Blake Edwards for his original direction, comedic insight and everlasting funny bone.
