Defending the Caveman, Rob Becker's history-making Broadway comedy, is one part stand-up, one part lecture and one part therapy session all mixed together that covers how the sexes communicate, how they bond, how they fight, how they love and more.

So grab your spouse, your friends, your wine drinking club, your parents or your therapist, and be a part of this non-stop hilarious experience, March 13-29, 2015 at the intimate, 216-seat Copley Theatre, 8 E. Galena Blvd., directly across the street from the Paramount Theatre in downtown Aurora.

Performances are Thursday at 1:30 p.m.; Friday at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday at 4 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., and Sunday at 3 p.m.Tickets are $35.

A San Jose, California native, Rob Becker started performing in the San Francisco Bay area in 1981. He has been a frequent guest on national television and radio programs including Late Night with David Letterman, Good Morning America, The Today Show, CNN, National Public Radio and Oprah.

Becker wrote Defending the Caveman over a three-year period, during which he made an informal study of psychology, sociology and pre-history. Today, more than 50 talented actors in 45 different countries perform this record-breaking comedy worldwide.

Becker has been married to his wife, Erin, for more than 20 years. They have three children and live in a small town in northern California.

Ben Tedder stars in the Aurora run of Defending the Caveman. When not touring with Defending the Caveman, Tedder is Chicago-based, auditions for film and television and is a member of the local cast of the off-Broadway hit The Awesome 80s Prom.
