Description

Three separate stories set to music under one banner:

Part 1: The Diary of Adam and Eve. Based on a story by Mark Twain, this is a clever satire on the first two people on God's Earth.

Part 2: The Lady or the Tiger. Based on a story by Frank R. Stockton, this is a tale that deals with the evils of jealous love set "a long time ago in an absolute kingdom" ruled over by King Arik.

Part 3: Passionella. Based on a story by Jules Feiffer, this is a comedy with a rather unusual twist on the old theme of "rags to riches".

Historical Notes

Music by Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, and a book by both with contributions from Jerome Coopersmith. Opened on Broadway on October 18, 1966, at the Shubert Theatre.


The Marquee newsletter announcing this show mentions how helpful donations of Green Stamps have been in helping the playhouse obtain needed items. Patrons are encouraged to continue their donations.
The June 11th performance was the opening show for the 16th annual Florida Theater Conference hosted by the playhouse. (Daytona Beach Evening News, June 11, 1975, page 2B).
