A stage manager cues the creation of the world. She's in control of everything, she's either God, or she thinks she is. Adam and Steve and Jane and Mabel, in The Garden of Eden, an ark, a visit with a highly rambunctious Pharaoh and finally even the Nativity. Fast forward to modern day Manhattan another baby, a lesbian wedding with a Jewish lesbian Rabbi to officiate and a bond that cannot be broken PLEASE NOTE...This production includes brief male nudity.
Watch as the stage manager (Kathy Hyland) creates the world right before your eyes. Travel with Adam (Zach Fretag), Steve (William Darby IV), Jane (Madison Rose Wilson) and Mabel (Abigail Worden) in the Garden of Eden, on the Ark, where they meet a few adorable and somewhat randy animals (Ricky Locci, Sharon Kibe and Leslie Robinson) ... and wait until you see what happens on that ark and then to Egypt where they meet a rather interesting Pharaoh (Ralph Scott) and his equally interesting guards, and then attend the Nativity....and then the whole gang is reunited in modern day NYC...for a wedding, another birth all commanded by a wheelchair bound, cable TV Diva, Lesbian Rabbi.. Yes it is one FABULOUS production of one FABULOUS story...in fact THE MOST FABULOUS STORY EVER TOLD by Paul Rudnick!
