All marriages require work and maintenance, but sometimes a literal representation is the perfect answer. And in BACKYARD STONEHENGE by Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn, the couple in question is reeling from addiction and legal issues that has cracked their very foundation. But stone by stone, they build something new in this play that gives hope for their future with humor and heart.

If you build a replica of Stonehenge in your yard (using your scary neighbor’s landscape stones without permission), will it make you feel bigger, will it make the wonders of the world feel closer, or maybe just smaller? Priskorn gives us a touching and comedic look at a couple trying to pick up the proverbial pieces after one of them makes an irreversible mistake that costs them not only a trip to see the real thing, but possibly their marriage. Maybe a small Stonehenge can provide a much needed miracle, which may last even after the neighbor finds out.

In the intimate confines of a suburban backyard, TJ's makeshift Stonehenge becomes a powerful metaphor. As the stones align, so do the fractured pieces of their relationship. Amid disappointment and DUIs, Kendra joins in, weaving commitment and forgiveness into the ancient stones. A testament to resilience and love.
