Rob Becker’s Defending the Caveman, created and written by Rob Becker, is a humorous exploration of the differences between men and women and how those differences make us misunderstand each other. The one-person show has played to sold-out audiences across the USA and Canada.

Defending the Caveman opened at the Helen Hayes Theater on Broadway on March 26, 1995 and earned a place in the theatrical record books after its 399th performance on July 17, 1996, when it surpassed Lily Tomlin’s Search for Intelligent Life in the Universe and Jackie Mason’s The World According to Me. At that point, Rob Becker’s Defending the Caveman became the longest running solo play in Broadway history. In honor of that milestone, New York City Mayor Rudolph Guiliani proclaimed July 18, 1996 "Caveman Day" in New York City and renamed the City’s West 44th Street "Caveman Way." The show eventually had over 700 performances before leaving New York City to embark on a national tour.
