An engrossing tale of an unscrupulous ingenue’s rise to Broadway stardom through
lies, cheating and blackmail, “The Wisdom of Eve” is adapted from the familiar
story by Orr, on which the film All About Eve and the hit musical Applause were
based.
What critics have said about the play:
“THE WISDOM OF EVE, by Mary Orr, is a strong and gripping play…”
—London Gazette
“Make a date to see THE WISDOM OF EVE…You won’t regret it…(The script)
is considerably better for the updating and paring Mary Orr has done…It helps to
have a good script and this is a peach.” – California Star-News
“The Wisdom of Eve” is…about women’s perceptions of other women…the story
plays as an even more cautionary tale than the film – not just of the toxicity of
parasites like Eve, but of our own gullibility and self-confidence in not taking such
tales seriously.” – Come To The Pedlar
