This play is sneaky good, both as creepy adult fun and also with a deeper message that will have audiences stopping to ask questions. Floyd-Priskorn continues to develop strong pieces that warrant consideration from theatres looking to both entertain and to engage audiences with topics for discussion after the curtain comes back down. Her strong dialogue and engaging characters should elevate this piece to the top of the pile for organizations seeking a strong, mid-length drama. Great work!

It doesn't matter whatever she's writing about , I always find Floyd-Priskorn's plays so witty and funny and this one is no exception. Even though she is dealing with such a topic as depression, she understands that so many times as humans we are carried back and forth between emotions that sometimes we have no control of and there are times we may end up in the Darkness, we should only look out for those who are around us who we can lean on and hopefully find our way out of that pit into a brighter path.

Brilliant. Floyd-Priskorn masterfully crafts a world of rich fantasy characters and scenescape. We come face-to-face with deep issues of self-harm and SI, body-anxiety, children raised by phones, and ongoing gun violence all within a intriguing and humor-filled shop in The Darkness. Here in a shop of oddities and vibrant personalities, we are free to discuss the secret and painful things. Creatively, this would be a fantastic adventure to bring to life for design elements and actors. An excellent story that would thrive on the stage and inspire the audience.
