Bob Stromberg, the comic best known for his work in "Triple Espresso," won a good notice in Des Moines for his one-man show, "Mr. Wonder Boy." The piece, about a guy (Stromberg) who examines his artistic worth in the wake of a bad review, has been kicking around for a few years. Stromberg has continued to refine and focus the piece.

Stromberg said the Des Moines engagement went well. He's now off to Connecticut for a run of "Triple Espresso" before returning to the Twin Cities. Here's the Des Moines Register review: click here.
