- Other worksWrote Adam Alone (2001), a hilarious and fanciful treatment of the story of Adam and Eve that explores what might have happened had Adam refused to partake of the fruit after Eve did. In this satirical view of the sexes, Eve leaves the garden and begins to experience the challenges of mortality, while Adam remains blissfully naive. The play examines such questions as innocence and experience, risk and growth, ignorance and knowledge.

- QuotesIn plays...out of necessity...you have to deal with language and ideas, whereas converting ideas into visuals involves using a whole different part of your brain. There is a transition to be made there. So, I suppose I would encourage any writer to write a play, for a number of reasons. First of all, because it forces you to deal with ideas rather than just blowing things up, or creating special effects. I think any good film has to have some significant human idea at the heart of it.
