Rob Beckers 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 Tomlins Search for Intelligent Life in the Universe and
Jackie Masons The World According to Me. At that point, Rob
Beckers 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 Citys West 44th Street "Caveman
Way." The show eventually had over 700 performances before
leaving New York City to embark on a national tour.
