    JACQUELYN PRISKORN gives us a heavenly look at the pitfalls of real-world dating in this short play. These two souls have seen it all through the ages and decide to try a new approach to finding true love…combine personalities to become one person. Let the fun begin! Witty dialogue and quick switches between comical settings—a dating game show, a bar, and a grocery store—makes Gemini: Lessons in Self-Love a guaranteed hit in any one-act festival.

    Is there such a thing as too close for soul mates. Yes. The answer is yes. Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn gives us an eloquent portrayal of the notion that we do not complete one another, we complement one another. You must have two whole people to have a working relationship, not pieces that form into one.

    "We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year, going over the same old ground..." enough Pink Floyd lyrics and time to concentrate on the great short play this Floyd has written here. It's fun, quirky, quick, but also sad and remorseful. I love how the playwright intertwines the separate groups of characters here. Very clever play!
