Press Reviews
"DiPietro…has a knack for writing for daffy characters and this play has a half-dozen of them. It feels comforting, like an old black-and-white film, and yet there’s a newness here, too…[a] satisfying, sweet comedy…"
— Associated Press
"LIVING ON LOVE…makes you laugh and love it!"
— NPR
"A guilty pleasure…This is a show that has its cake, eats it, and then rubs whipped cream all over its face."
