Cliched, Disappointing, Fluffy, Insipid

See it if You like blondes with unrealistic southern accents and stereotypical sassy black girlfriends

Don't see it if You are hoping to see an interpretation with a twist or even a clever take on the old story. This was anti-women and anti-men in one take.

Theatre is Easy
August 24th, 2016

"We wonder why Eve didn’t depart sooner, and a little more effort to show Paradise’s appeal might have created some interesting dramatic tension…'Eve' sets up a plot rife with issues of gender parity, free will, and self-definition, but never quite gives these themes their full due. However, by highlighting this well-known tale's all-too-familiar flavors of sexism and power dynamics, Hutson-Ellenberg invites us to consider Eve’s side of the story."
