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. Variety says, "Off-the canyon-walls funny. Paddle or portage your own boat to the theatre - but get there!"
"Men on Boats has something unique to say. The audience gets to be a part of a true story set in a new age, where all identities and ideas are welcome," says Mad Cow Theatre Executive Director, Mitzi Maxwell. "You will leave the theatre grinning from ear to ear."
