Synopsis

Diana has it all.

Beautiful, intelligent, sweet natured.

The sort of rare girl that all men swoon over.

What's more she is the daughter of that most reviled of species, a wealthy banker.

The three men in her life are Jamie, the much envied man to whom she is officially betrothed; Tom, the attractive boyfriend of Jamie's sister; and Geoff, the oldest friend who is to be best man.

Diana's insurmountable problem is that, during the course of the longest weekend of her life, she finds herself having promised marriage to all three!

How can she decide?

What matters most - familiarity, suitability, sexual passion?

Can she make up her mind in time for the big society wedding arranged in a month's time?

Bewildered banker's wife, Ann, finds herself having to act as negotiator, counselor, traffic controller, legal adviser, judge, jury, and fortune teller to an entire household of distraught people.

And it isn't discovered until the final curtain who it is that Diana chooses.

Press Reviews

"Turbulent romances with complications... provoked huge laughter at its world premiere... an intricate premise with a suspenseful conclusion, and in between dramatic fireworks full of surprises in both plot and dialogue."

— Bonner Rundschau

"This lengthily applauded premiere is a wonderful illustration of Sacha Guitry’s moral that ‘love inspires the heart whilst stifling the brain’... all the complexities of emotional relationship are an intriguing delight right up to the final curtain."

— General Anzeiger

"The constant fracturing of relationships accelerates until matters threaten to veer out of control so fast that even the most rational member of the cast can barely retain their sanity... The strengths of the piece are the diverse cast of colourful characters, the lively and lightning fast dialogue... Produces an amorous and highly amusing ronde of love, or as the exasperated mother calls it, ‘a boogie-woogie of emotions!"

— Express Bonn
