It is the summer of 1869, and a government-sanctioned expedition led by John Wesley Powell seeks to charter the new frontier. Traversing the Green and Colorado Rivers, Powell, his comrade William Dunn, and eight other explorers encounter perilous rapids, raging rocks, capsized boats, slitherin’ snakes, and a rescue by a pant-less man! Told entirely by a female cast, this story invites us to experience the joy of exploration, while also considering whose stories have been left untold or erased. Join Powell and his crew as they discover grueling challenges, the strength of camaraderie, and the beauty of the river’s path. *This show contains strong language not suitable for all audiences*
