About The Play
A terrifying virus is infecting post-fact America. As vicious media pundits battle to control the narrative, an artifically intelligent sex doll named Mia has a breakthroughBut will she be our Savior, or is she the Angel of Death? EAT THE DEVIL is a wildly hilarious flight through an internet-driven Apocalypse that will leave you wondering if you have enough freeze-dried queso to survive...

EAT THE DEVIL is the first production to come out of the OYL Megaphone Program that supports young playwrights in creating unconventional, radical new work.   Started in 2017, the OYL Megaphone Program is OYL's secondary new play development program specifically for young, un-produced playwrights.
