Diaries of Adam and Eve

1 Male, 1 Female

David Birney from Mark Twain Price: $8.95

This delightful adaptation is set in a Victorian garden and is structured as a series of diary entries by Adam and Eve

The play also works as a reader’s theatre piece

At first, Adam is puzzled by the new arrival in the garden and he is suspicious of her disturbing appetite for fruit

Eve, believing herself to be some sort of experiment, is curious about another experiment in the garden, perhaps some sort of reptile or possibly architecture

Eve gives names to everything, much to Adam’s annoyance. He tries to ignore her, so she seeks companionship among the animals particularly with a certain snake

Adam and Eve grow to love each other and, in the end, an elderly Adam is filled with a realization of that love as he stands at Eve’s grave
