The venue is, as in the older versions, a garden. Two young men are having a chat in that lovely spot. The one who is slightly older is Adam, the other, Steve. They have just met but already love is in the air. Which is hardly surprising since there is hardly anything else to do in this place except fall in love and breathe fresh air -- and of course partake in a particular pastime that even the dumb beasts are particularly fond of. But Adam and Steve don't get to live happily ever after the way Hans Christian Andersen would probably have wanted it if he'd written the tale. A third party comes into the picture. He's quite different from the other two, being half-man and half-snake, with quite a devilish disposition. He manages to seduce Steve into believing that if the other ate a certain forbidden forbidden fruit (and made Adam do the same), the two would turn into supermen! The fruit was plucked, chomped and digested but those two didn't turn into demi or even quasi-gods. Instead all hell breaks loose when the Big Boss arrives on the scene and discovers he has been DISOBEYED!
You think you know the tale but rest assured you've never heard it told this way before. Enjoy!
