Defending the Caveman Comes to Thousand Oaks
For a Limited Engagement: Oct. 3-6, 2007

(Thousand Oaks, CA)— The Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza Foundation presents DEFENDING THE CAVEMAN in the Janet and Ray Scherr Forum Theatre at Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza’s Countrywide Performing Arts Center from October 3-6, 2007.  Show days and times are 8pm October 3-4; 8:30pm October 5 and 2:30 & 8:30pm October 6.

Defending the Caveman, the longest running solo play in Broadway history, is now a worldwide, rock-solid tour-de-force.  This blockbuster has won the hearts of millions in more than 15 different languages.  Actor Cody Lyman will star as the Caveman.  The hilariously insightful play about the ways men and women relate, is an international hit with productions in 30 countries to include the United States, Canada, South Africa, Iceland, Sweden and Germany.

Comedian Rob Becker wrote Defending the Caveman over a three-year period during which he made an informal study of anthropology, prehistory, psychology, sociology and mythology.  This prehistoric look at the battle of the sexes played for two years on Broadway and is full of hilarious scenarios that celebrate the differences between men and women.  

“[Caveman] probes the male mystique with a well-aimed spear…” –The San Francisco Chronicle
“An outrageously funny and surprisingly sweet exploration of the gender gap…” -Chicago Sun Times
“Hysterically Funny!  Couples who were seen arguing before the show, stroll out into the night holding hands.” – Variety
“A comic phenomenon!” – The New York Times

With hilarious insights on contemporary feminism, masculine sensitivity and the erogenous zone, Defending the Caveman addresses the common themes in relationships that go straight to the funny bone. For more information go to www.defendingthecaveman.com
