    “ Romance! Intrigue! Murder?! This epic play has it all! I love the social media aspect of the story, as I am always suspicious of over-sharers, myself. Now, I'm even MORE suspicious! The characters are all so very likable, even when they are doing horrible things. DeVita really draws the audience in with the twists and turns into an edge of your seat climax. Absolutely delightful! Great to read, and I bet it would be exciting to watch, fun to design and a dream to perform! ”

    “ I thoroughly enjoyed reading this sparkling play. The laughs begin when reading the cast list, and the zingers just keep coming. But layers are added cleverly, and what initially appears light becomes much darker, as the naive but very likable aging hero is ensnared by characters both ruthless and revolting, whilst also highly amusing. By the midway point I was enjoying the devilish plot twists and thriller touches every bit as much as a comedy. This witty and incisive script would be delight to see in production. ”

    “ Buckle up, you will be taken on an adventure of romance, love-lost and love-gained, life changes, murders or not, intrigue, and some real witty dialogue. Each character in the play comes to life in a vivid story, which will keep your attention throughout. Twists and turns, surprises, and much more make this marvelous work of extraordinaire playwright DOUG DIVITA a winner. Such a good play! ”

    “ The dark wit that DeVita uses shocks the reader out of their sweet comfort of what comes as a love story at first glance. This piece takes tons of turns and keeps you guessing while willfully engaged. I worry about writing too much and spoiling some of the fun DeVita has in store. A great read for when you want to indulge in some laugher! ”

    “ At first I thought, Doug DeVita is a romantic at heart, showing the trials and tribulations of the dating scene for those who are perhaps past their prime and not hopeful for their prospects. Then, a bit of sunshine enters and new friendships start and--- hold on! She's WHAT? and He's WHO? And that other guy looks like someone else but ISN'T? Holy cow, the last half of this play is one fun twist after another. I got whiplash from the last few pages! I don't know how you'd stage all this, but man, it would be fun to try. ”

    “ Mystery! Mayhem! Mirth! And more than a few hilarious twists! This dark comedy from the mind of Doug DeVita rollicks along like a rollercoaster. A fun show with roles for actors hungry to chew on some scenery. Delightful! ”

    “ A dark, deliciously twisted comedy. Any lover of mythology will have a great time finding allusions throughout the play. I know I did! It has some really wonderful roles in here for LGBTQ+ actors to boot. Plenty of surprises in store for readers and audience members alike. The thing I loved most, though, I have to say is the wit.

    Oh, the wit of this play. Well done, Mr. DeVita. ”

    “ A little sordid, a lot of fun; Doug DeVita puts the dark and twisted in light comedy with this intriguing romp through the strange minds and perverse desires that drive the Goddess of the Hunt! ”

    “ A delightfully bonkers and smart throwback screwball comedy that revels in its dark wit and satiric humor! Mad props to Doug DeVita! ”

    “ Never has Hemingway struck a grander, or more off-putting, shadow. DeVita’s farce fires on all cylinders, giving the audience a world both darkly madcap and beautifully real. We cannot help ourselves being pulled along for the ride as Diana whisks Charlie into her well-laid traps, and the twists and turns never fail to stop or satisfy. Part screwball comedy of old, part mythological fable, and with excellent roles for older and LGBTQ actors, this is a piece to knock you off your feet. I would love to see it on its own. ”
