Men on Boats

  • 825 Arts 825 University Avenue West Saint Paul, MN, 55104 (map)

The American government sends a crew of explorers down a river to name and claim things that aren’t theirs to own — and they soon hit rough waters.  Riffing on the history of an 1869 expedition through the Grand Canyon and played by a cast of people the first journey left out, Men on Boats is a raucous adventure that questions our mixed-up myths of masculinity and Manifest Destiny.

Content Advisory:  The show explores masculinity and Manifest Destiny, including the westward expansion into Native lands; it contains strong language including ableist language; yelling and loud voices; reference to war; and references to offstage death.
