American Theater Company (ATC) opens the regional premiere of Jaclyn Backhaus' Men on Boats tonight, Monday, January 9. Men on Boats is the first production helmed by newly appointed ATC Artistic Director Will Davis, who also staged the production's acclaimed Off Broadway run last year. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

The cast of ATC's regional premiere includes ATC Ensemble Member Kelly O'Sullivan (WilLiam Dunn) and ATC Youth Ensemble alumna Lawren Carter (Hall), with Erin Barlow (Frank Goodman), Arti Ishak (John Colton Sumner), BrittneyLove Smith (Bradley), Saraí Rodriguez (Seneca Howland), Avi Roque (O.G. Howland), Stephanie Shum (Hawkins), Kelli Simpkins (John Wesley Powell) and Lauren Sivak (Old Shady).

Telling the tale of ten explorers who set out on four boats to map the raging rapids of the Green and Colorado Rivers on the government's first sanctioned expedition in the American West, Men on Boats is performed by a genderfluid cast of women and folks otherwise defined.

Men on Boats plays at ATC now through February 12, 2017. Single tickets are on sale now for $38 and are available by calling the ATC box office at 773-409-4125 or visiting www.atcweb.org.
