New York City
The age-old story of Adam and Eve is re-imagined with heartfelt humor, first by legendary wit Mark Twain and then again by playwright James Still. In this romantic romp, the world’s first lovers meet in paradise at the dawn of time – and embark on an epic, exuberant battle of the sexes. Eve craves closeness and conversation; Adam is dazed by her unpredictable emotions and yearns for peace and quiet. One fall from grace and several thousand years later, the middle-aged couple returns to present-day Eden (now an upscale resort) with cell phones and rolling luggage in tow, attempting to recapture their primal passion. Crafted with lyrical language and ingenious imagery, Searching for Eden is a funny, tender testament to enduring love.
