Ten explorers. Four boats. One Grand Canyon. Men on Boats is the true(ish) history of an 1869 expedition where a one-armed captain and an insane yet loyal crew set out to chart the course of the Colorado River. Inspired by John Wesley Powell’s actual travel logs, Backhaus’ nimble and ingenious script is provocative, laugh-out loud theatre, performed by a diverse female-only cast who infuse America’s historic myths of male conquest with a sly blast of satire.
