The Diary of Adam and Eve

By Josh Hornbeck
Based on "Extracts From Adam's Diary" and "Eve's Diary" by Mark Twain

It’s the world’s first romantic comedy as Adam and Eve discover each other in the Garden of Eden – or Niagara Falls Park, as Eve likes to call it. It isn’t love at first sight for this pre-historic couple. Adam is continually annoyed by Eve’s attempts at renaming creation, and Eve is hurt by Adam’s constant neglect. Eventually, the couple learns to appreciate their differences and find a deep and abiding love with each other. But will Eve’s curiosity about the apple tree and her new friendship with a talking snake threaten the life they have begun together?

From Adam and Eve’s first day on earth and their fall from grace, to the birth of Cain and Abel, The Diary of Adam and Eve is a tender, poignant, and very funny play about love and the grace of our God. Based on the stories by Mark Twain.
