First seen at our theatre as a Mainstage production in 2000, we are bringing this classic comedy back for a one night only reading as a special holiday treat. In an alternate version of Biblical history, God, or the Stage Manager, created Adam and Steve instead of Adam and Eve. Their idyll ends when Adam's earnest questions about the existence of a supreme deity and life beyond the garden condemn them to a barren wilderness settled by two lesbians, Jane and Mabel. After various Act I misadventures inspired by the good book, the play leaps forward to present-day New York for Act II. Here God is noticeably silent as the characters struggle with the miseries and anxieties of pregnancy, AIDS, and other modern issues during the holiday season.
