Details

The play takes place in an urban wilderness in modern day Coventry (Paradise CV6). It is influenced by three interconnected stories; The Temptation of Christ, Adam & Eve and Milton's Paradise Regained. Jasmine has been missing from home for 40 days and nights. Her mother Mary is beside herself with worry. While Jasmine is lost in the wilderness she faces hard life choices and confronts the many temptations that often face the youth of today. Will she fall as Adam & Eve once did, or will she choose to be strong and resist? This modern retelling of a medieval mystery play explores the challenges that young people face when they refuse to conform and examines their strong sense of wanting to belong and 'fit in'.
