Men on Boats
by Speedrun Studios

Dec. 23 - Jan. 14 (2023)

Ten explorers. Four boats. One Grand Canyon. MEN ON BOATS is the true(ish) history of an 1869 expedition, when a one-armed captain and a crew of insane yet loyal volunteers set out to chart the course of the Colorado River. With a diverse cast made up entirely of women, trans, non-binary, genderfluid and gender non-conforming performers, MEN ON BOATS spits in the eyes of traditional casting “types”, expertly satirizing male conquest throughout history in this three-act roller coaster ride of chaos and hilarity.
