Act
3 – Adam meets Eve
The scene is a field of flowers. With her back to the audience Stage
Right, Eve is sitting among the flowers, humming.
God – in a long flowing righteous purple robe - enters with Adam Stage
Left. God leaves Adam
stunned dead in his tracks and goes Up Stage Center to watch. The
sun is setting. The evening sounds of birds and crickets are heard.
Adam looks at God, gesturing towards Eve. God nods and smiles.
Adam
takes hesitant steps towards her and stops as she stands and stretches.
She smiles sweetly and approaches him, gathering flowers as she comes.
They meet Down Stage Center.
She
examines the scar in his side, murmuring sympathies. He runs his fingers
thru her hair.
Adam
grins broadly at the audience.
Adam
– “WELL, I’LL BE DAMNED!”
God
throws His head back in a hearty amused laugh, lifts His hand.
God
– “SO BE IT!”
