Advertiser staff

"Defending the Caveman," Rob Becker's comic one-man show starring Isaac Lamb in the battle of the sexes, continues its engagement at the Hawaii Theatre with performances through Sunday, April 5. The comedy has the distinction of being the longest-running one-man show ever on Broadway. This is the first time the national tour has played Hawaii.

Shows remaining are Friday at 8 p.m., Saturday at 2 and 8 p.m. and Sunday at 2 and 7 p.m.

Tickets are priced from $31 to $46, with a $5 discount for students, seniors, military and Hawaii Theatre members. Groups of 10 or more also may get the $5 discount by calling 791-1310.

In addition, the Sunday matinee will be interpreted for the deaf by signer Jan Fried. According to Burton White, Hawaii Theatre Artistic Director and General Manager, all seats in a special section will be at the lowest price offered, $31, plus $3 Theatre Restoration Charge, for deaf theatergoers and a companion.

To facilitate tickets, the hearing impaired may email scottschmidtke@hawaii.rr.com.

Tickets are at the Hawaii Theatre Box Office, 1130 Bethel Street, by calling 528-0506 or on-line at www.hawaiitheatre.com.
