University Concert Hall, Presents Defending the Caveman starring Tom O’Mahony

Rob Becker’s Defending the Caveman, the longest-running one-man show in Broadway history is back to challenge and demystify the differences between the sexes. Dubbed by reviewers as “hysterically funny” the Oliver Award winner for ‘Best Entertainment’ in 2000, Defending the Caveman has sold over 8 million tickets in 45 countries and has been translated into over 18 different languages. 

Defending the Caveman has won the hearts of millions across the globe and now it has its first-ever Irish tour, which arrives at University Concert Hall, Limerick on Thursday, October 24. Using psychology, sociology and plain old observational comedy, Defending the Caveman highlights the battle of the sexes – the stereotypical, and yet undisputedly true, differences between men and women. Why do men greet each other with insults? Why does it take women so long to get ready? Why can’t men talk about their feelings… And why does it seem that women can’t stop?
