Bite
The story takes place on the edge of an old-fashioned Garden of Eden that bears a disturbing likeness to Club Med eternal paradises emphasized with tropical smoothies, private tennis lessons and elaborate backrubs. The garden has a wide range of heavenly support staff--waitresses, a tennis coach and technician whose job it is to make sure that paradise never changes.
Eve believes that that there must definitely be more to life than comfort and luxury and she thinks that the apple has the key to everything. Thinking that the apple has the key to a new world away from the monotony of the garden, Eve bites the forbidden fruit. Eve tells Adam what she has done but he does not react accordingly. Like any other levelheaded male who's afraid of change, Adam stays behind where life is simple, easy and free of obligation. As Eve leaves the garden, Adam has all the required luxury, lazing all day, being waited on hand and foot by the servants of Eden. Eve on the other hand, begins dealing with the challenges of death. She experiences doubt, fear, and loneliness and as a result begins to grow and learn. Eve realizes and understands that she and Adam are destined to share their lives, to build a world together. With the realization, she returns to Eden to try and make Adam understand. Each time she comes to Adam, she shows what he is missing. She tells him about fire, rain, hugs, kisses and many more things.
Eve's action has jeopardized the celestial order and everything is in a state of Chaos. The Support Staff is left abandoned and they do their utmost to remain happy and positive.
The staffs at Eden bravely wait for downscaling and restructuring while the project moves into the next level. The musical presents the world's first love story in an entirely different way. The paradise was never more amusing and attraction was never more delicious.
