Plot

The story follows Adam (Blessing Lung'aho), a charming Nairobi playboy who lives in the fast lane, treating women as disposable objects without consequence. His world is suddenly turned upside down when a mysterious curse transforms him into a woman named Eve. Now forced to navigate life in a completely new body and perspective, Adam/Eve must confront the true impact of their past actions and their deep-seated misogyny.

To reclaim his original life, they must team up with their introverted twin brother. Together, they embark on a comical and transformative journey of good deeds, redemption, and self-discovery. ^{[4] [5]}

Cast

• Blessing Lung'aho as Adam/Makori. ^{[6] [7]} Blessing plays three roles including Adam, a Nairobi playboy who is transformed into a woman by a mysterious curse. ^[8] Adam, now in his 30s, stands out as a leading real estate agent in Nairobi and epitomizes the classic playboy archetype. He is confident, though this comes off as self-centeredness, making him less adept at interpersonal relationships. When he transforms into Eve, he's forced to confront his feminine side and make amends for past wrongs, leading to a profound personal transformation. Makori is Adam's geeky twin brother. Makori lives together with Adam and their shared experiences become essential when Adam turns into Eve.
• Ellah Maina as Eve. Eve is Adam in a woman's body. They share the same mind, instincts, and impulses, now navigating the world through an entirely different form. She tries to adapt to behaving “like a woman,” but her masculine mannerisms constantly clash with how everyone perceives her. This mismatch creates both comedic tension and emotional challenges, forcing Eve to confront the social realities women face every day.
• Winnie Anyango as Acholi, the enigmatic part time household assistant of the twins. Her interactions with the twins are marked by awkwardness and tension. The twins find it challenging to open up to her, leading them to keep their extraordinary secret hidden. She likes doing Zumba dance, singing and listening to true crime podcasts.
• Mucheru Kamau as Kevo, one of Adam's colleagues at the real estate agency. He used to be the alpha male in the office, but things changed when Adam came along. When Adam “disappears”, Kevo thinks it's a good chance to take back his top spot. But when Eve shows up as Adam's replacement, Kevo gets really suspicious and keeps bothering her.
• Celestine Gachuhi as Amanda. She is the Executive Assistant to Mr Babu. She dresses suggestively to get ahead. She wants to become a realtor but the male dominant environment does not help her.
• Chris Kamau as Mr. Babu. The boss at Adam's real estate agency.
• Kieran Ratanya as Michael.
• Mathew Ngugi as Jackson, one of Adam's colleagues at the real estate agency.
• Gashiki Gashiki as Mrs Obama. The HR boss at Adam's real estate agency. She is a super distant relative of Obama and she never lets anyone forget it.
• Marya Okoth as Stacy. She is a receptionist at Adam's real estate agency. She was asked to do a social media post three years ago and since then she calls herself the social media manager despite never being promoted. She is a sucker for romance but she always goes for the wrong guys.
• Kevin Ogutu as Sylvanas, your typical nosy askari who wants to help all the time and wants to know everything. He flirts with Acholi and even with Eve when she appears.
• Robert Agengo as M-DEP. He is multi-dimensional element physician and witchdoctor.
• Rose K. Njoroge as Tasha. Makori's love interest. She is also techy and geeky but more outgoing than him. She is pushing his limits.
• Gerald Langiri

Adam to Eve was developed by the award-winning filmmaking couple Lizz Njagah and Alex Konstantaras through their production company, Historia Films. Alex served as the series' Head Writer and co-director. Lizz Njagah served as the Executive Producer. Co-directing duties were handled by UK-based filmmaker Aggie Nyagari. ^{[9] [10]}

The writing team included Serah Mwihaki, Rose Njoroge (who also stars in the series), Lily Wanjiku, Tony Koros, Yafesi Musioke, and George Salt. ^[11]

Blending comedy, social commentary, and speculative fiction, Adam to Eve explores a bold gender-flip premise that challenges traditional ideas about patriarchy, identity, and power. Executive Producer Lizz Njagah noted, "At its heart, Adam to Eve is a story about walking in someone else's shoes quite literally. It uses humor to spark reflection on how we perceive gender and privilege." ^{[12] [13]}

Alex described the series as "unapologetically funny, deeply Kenyan, and reflective of the vibrant, evolving conversations happening across Africa about identity and equality." ^[14]
