About Adam Geist
Orphaned by his mother’s death, betrayed by his family, and cast aside by society, Adam is a young man who desperately wants to be good, but finds himself constantly at war with the world. Every step he takes–drugs, sex, violence, politics, religion–brings him closer to damnation. As his WRATH takes hold, he falls farther and farther from the light.
Do we carry the seed of sin within ourselves, or does the world make us bad? Follow one of Germany’s most acclaimed contemporary playwrights into the urban wilderness. Find out what happens when everything is taken away, and all you’re left with is anger.
The Adam Geist experience is not appropriate for children–the show includes adult language, nudity, graphic violence, and violence of a sexual nature.
