Adam in The Wooden Breeks

Adam qua Tom

Adam recently appeared off-Broadway in Glen Berger’s new play at the Lucille Lortel Theater here in New York. Critics found him “nicely sardonic” and an “engaging storyteller.” We here at Adam’s Apple offer a couple of production stills for those fans unable to attend. Enjoy.

Adam’s Apple Cheeks!

While looking for updates on Adam, we stumbled upon the following entry on the 2003 short “Coyote Beach” at Celebrity Nudity Database:

He plays Sarah’s boyfriend in this amusing short film. Throughout it we are treated with various shots of him in his bathing suit and sandals (and occasionally with a long-sleeved shirt on over it) - the suit even clings precariously to his butt in one instance and you can see his butt crack. But the best is yet to come. After the sex in the forest, we see him walking around and talking to himself (the camera is focused on his upper chest) and then you get a look at his bare ass from the back, very nice and shapely. Then he turns around and goes to his girlfriend, and you get another view of his ass (and the camera is perched alongside the girl and I think there is an obscured view of his genitals in shadow as he moves towards her). He then sits down with her and helps her get dressed, and then gets up to catch up with her, and you get yet another view of his rather lovely ass. Recommended.

Adam received three stars out of a possible four for this performance. Intriguing.

Adam and the Cast of Damages

Further exploration into Adam’s activities uncovered more information on Damages (Working Title), as Fox Television likes to call it:

Executive producer Jonathan Lisco (’NYPD Blue,’ ‘The District, ‘Jack & Bobby’) has created a fearless drama about the moral dilemma of being a lawyer in America today. DAMAGES focuses on four young Chicago attorneys — all complex, all like us in many ways — who must resist the seductive power of their profession if they are to have truly meaningful personal lives.

JACK SHALE (Cole Hauser, ‘ER,’ ‘Good Will Hunting’) is a brilliant but morally ambiguous litigator with blue-collar roots whose natural charm and intensity threaten to take him over the edge. His best friend EVAN WEXLER (Adam Rothenberg, ‘Misconceptions’) is caught between the boss who’s making advances and his family at home. SUSAN KEEVER (Kristin Lehman, ‘Judging Amy’), a lawyer with high ideals, is trying to hold onto them while harboring a terrible secret. And Susan’s roommate JENNIFER CARILLO (Sarah Shahi, ‘The L Word’), a sexy, ambitious State’s Attorney, is fighting for justice while discovering the limits of what she will sacrifice.

Brash and close to the bone, DAMAGES combines the pace and wit of ‘The West Wing’ with the intrigue of ‘The Firm.’ In addition to telling compelling legal stories, the series also will probe the ways in which their jobs affect the lawyers themselves. Each week, Damages will take an amusing and provocative approach as it cross-examines work, love and all that we value.

DAMAGES is directed by Jon Amiel (’Entrapment’) and produced by 20th Century Fox Television.

They’re like us, in many ways. Can’t wait.

We Are Deeply Ashamed….

We here at Adam’s Apple have recently become aware that we have failed to provide our readers with timely Adam Rothenberg updates. We apologize and offer the following tidbit from the Futon Critic:

DAMAGES (FOX) - Adam Rothenberg (Eddie Cabrio on Misconceptions) has joined the cast of the drama pilot, about the personal and professional lives of a group of Chicago-based lawyers. Rothenberg, whose involvement is likely in second position to the yet-to-debut WB comedy, will play Evan Wexler in the project, which also stars Cole Hauser and Kristin Lehman. Damages is set up at 20th Century Fox Television with Jon Amiel directing from a script by creator Jonathan Lisco.

Damages also features one of this blogger’s personal favorite Melrose Place alum, the spunky Laura Leighton.
