More Information
In a modern version of Adam's seduction by Eve, The Shape of Things pits gentle, awkward Adam against experienced, analytical Evelyn. After a chance meeting at a museum, Evelyn and Adam embark on an intense relationship that causes shy and principled Adam to go to extraordinary lengths to improve himself. In the process, Evelyn's subtle and insistent coaching results in a reconstruction of Adam's fundamental moral character. Only in a final and shocking revelation does Evelyn reveal the nature of her interest in Adam. Labute's latest work is an intense and disturbing study not only of the uses of power within human relationships, but also of the ethics involved in the relationship of art and life. The Shape of Things challenges society's most deeply entrenched ideas about art, manipulation and love.
