Anne Heche and Adam Arkin star in David Rambo's radio adaptation of the Oscar-nominated screenplay, Adam's Rib, for L.A. Theatre Works. Gordon Hunt directs these five live performances that will be recorded for future radio broadcast.

Adam's Rib (1949) was director George Cukor's most famous film of the battle of the sexes, written by the husband-wife team of Ruth Gordon and Garson Kanin. A happily married couple's relationship is put to the test when husband and wife find themselves serving as trial attorneys on opposite sides of the same headline-making, attempted murder, marital case -- he as the prosecutor, she as the defender. The comical fireworks displayed in the courtroom follow these two home, creating a clever and extremely funny portrait of love and work.
