It’s the longest solo play in Broadway history, and if you watch the clips on YouTube, it’s pretty easy to see why. Rob Becker’s Defending the Caveman is a grin-inducing retelling of the battle of the sexes. In the show, the guy at center stage reexamines contemporary male/female relationships by comparing them to those from the Stone Age, when men were hunters and women were gatherers. The jokes are familiar: “Women are not hindered by logic.” But given the right performer, the comedy is still funny. The whole thing is performed on a lean set consisting of a Stone Age-looking easy chair and TV. Thankfully, your seats at the Hobby Center will be far more comfortable. 7:30 p.m. Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, 2 and 7:30 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. Through June 14. 800 Bagby. For information, call 713-315-2525 or visit www.thehobbycenter.org. $55.75.
Wednesdays-Sundays. Starts: June 3. Continues through June 14, 2009
