From the blurb: “A wild physical comedy that tells the story of a theatre company during a run of a show. The director plays the part of God, and is married to Eve, Adam is a spoiled diva and the snake a beginning actor. When the backstage technician carries out his cunning plot to takeover one of the prime roles on stage – their life is thrown into utter chaos, but the show must go on.
Behind the scenes you will experience the suspense of a quick costume
change, maneuvering complex backdrops, the anxiety of actors, power
struggles, life-size cardboard animals, excitement and despair, extension
cables, secret desires and private lives, who are turned in the duration of
one show to an exquisite farce of “reality-show” culture.”
