What is the theme in Without Feathers by Woody Allen?

The plan is the main theme. From Hacker's plan, to the tyranny of the script, to God's demand that Abraham sacrifice Isaac, the plan is a force that limits individuality and free will. Woody Allen equates this force to that of religious faith, even though God, as God, only appears in the "The Scrolls." Elsewhere in the collection, the plan is depicted as a human failing, a willingness to be defined rather than to define oneself. This is true of Kleinman, who, despite all common sense, followed the plan to his death. It is also true of Euripides, who so loves being a slave that he fails to exercise his free will until it is almost too late.
