Bob Stromberg is a funny man. For over thirty years he has traveled the world performing his very unique and perfect blend of standup, story and shtick. He's the co-author and an original star of the megahit theatrical comedy, Triple Espresso (A Highly Caffeinated Comedy), which has been seen by nearly two million people from San Diego to the West End of London. The Chicago Sun Times called Bob, "...a mesmerizing physical comedian." The London Times called him, "...a genuinely funny man." And so he is. (www.bobstromberg.com)
Kristen Spielman makes people laugh at everything from Tingling Tea Tree shampoo to airplane sleep masks. Her ability to think quickly on her feet distinguishes each performance as its own. She spent the first half of her life taking herself way too seriously. Kristen dreamed of changing the world through her intellect and sincerity. The bubble burst upon entering marriage and motherhood. Since then, instead of viewing life through the "it happens" lens, she views it though the "make it happens" lens.Though she still strikes out sometimes, Kristen's ability to hit life's curveballs with energetic wit helps her take everyday experiences and turn them into comedic home-runs.
