←Recommendations of CREAK

I loved this play! Where do threat and fear really lie? A subtle commentary on the digital world, witty, playful, and bittersweet.

As an adult, I'm not afraid to admit it's scary out there. And though CREAK is a fun and twisty blend of comedy and horror, when the laughs are over, it forces you to reflect on just how incomprehensible and terrifying the world must be for the young. One of the standouts of the Gi60 festival and a perfect one-minute play.

This play takes the horror truism that the unseen is scarier than the monster you show the audience & twists it in a way that’s almost cute — which is, of course, even scarier.

An incredible one-minute play. A twist we all see but also somehow never see coming.

Excellent. Playing at first upon our expectations and then exceeding them. Poignant. (Oct 6, 2024)

Perfection. Utter perfection. This is a bite sized meal. This is a funny play that turns the monster in the closet trope on its ear. [10/05/2024]

The true challenge of the one minute play is that it seems almost impossible to create a story with a beginning, middle and end and have character development and a motivated protagonist and a reveal and a big dramatic moment and maintain good voice distinction and amazing dialogue and so on and so on. Kudos to Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn for showing us all how it is done! (10/5/2024)

Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn has created a beautiful example of letting the audience's imagination fill in the details of the horror rather than showing it to them. I love that it allows so many interpretations of what the horrific thing in this one-minute play could be. [24/09/17]

What a fantastic dark comedy. This short play runs the gamut from light hearted laughter to true dread. It's short, sweet, and offers a real scare. So good.

What a moment! Succinct and very scary in a New York minute. Floyd-Priskorn just captured our world.
