"The Discovery of Original Carnal Sin
"by Adam and Eva
in the Garden of Eden".
This is man.
God's property-
The first sin and possible crime
is voyeurisme.
You must of course ask yourself
what, in fact, will this Colmar audience
be doing now?
What, in fact, are you doing now?
Is the theatre the legitimate place
where we permit ourselves
to be licensed Voyeurs'?
This is woman.
God and man's property.
So, we had secured a foothold
on their credibility.
As I hope we have on yours.
The Creation was much more conceptual.
God would never have been so vulgar.
Don't you think, Rabbi,
that it was very beautiful?
No, I do not.
This was a display of abject carnality,
fit for a bordello!
- Genesis is never so explicit.
- Unfortunately not.
Otherwise we would all believe
with much greater enthusiasm.
We are going, of course,
to tell the old, old story,
in the accustomed manner
of long and venerable repute.
The slow anticipation
of the business of love
building up
to its true demonstration.
Get the nipples to itch,
the scrotums to tighten,
the pricks to rise,
Man.
I call you...
...Adam.
Adam is an ancient Aramaic word
meaning many things.
A beginning. A start.
An ego. An eye.
An empty space ready to be inked in.
As I give you a name,
you must now...
As God gives Adam a name,
he must now do likewise
to everything else
in this fresh, clean,
brave new world.
Choose wisely.
I had employed an English playwright,
Boethius.
Said he knew
all the new English playwrights.
So many choices.
So many to choose from.
Stan with the larger concepts
and move freely down
through the categories of size.
That's what I always do.
Sky!
Very good.
English theatre was booming at that time.
Still is.
I paid him a fee of 8 a play.
I met him at a theatre in Southwark.
We were both taking a sh*t together.
He noticeably wore no underlinen.
Tree.
Yes. Indeed, I see you have
quite grasped the concept.
You are beginning
to understand God's intentions.
Well done, Adam! Well done.
Roughly shoved his prick
into his codpiece
as though it was
a serviceable sword into a scabbard.
Now, I will leave you
in order to spend a little time
with some abstract values
Do not exceed yourself.
I liked this playwright.
I liked what I saw of his prick
and how he handled it.
What effrontery!
You cannot clap God.
Why ever not?
- May your palms burn in hell.
- Jesus!
He was only applauding good works,
like a good Christian.
- I'm going to clap with him!
- So am I.
- and woman -
for painters,
has always presented problems.
There is just about
