    Jacquelyn Priskorn Floyd's play "THE TALK" is a witty, insightful look at aging and family dynamics. As I get older I can identify with this play because of the authentic dialogue and relatable characters, Priskorn explores the challenges and joys of growing older while maintaining independence. The playwright's keen ear for nuance and her ability to tackle serious themes with humor make this short play both entertaining and thought-provoking. Priskorn challenges stereotypes about seniors, presenting her characters as vibrant and full of life. "THE TALK" is a must-read for anyone interested in...

    What a great setup for an even greater turn of events! Annie and Meg are far from infirm, but if their adult children would be more comfortable with them living at the senior village… Two appropriately aged females will have a blast with this!

    In so many plays the senior citizens are usually relegated to background characters and/or the characters in need of being looked after. Not so with Jacquie Floyd's newest play. Here, Annie and Meg take a back seat to no one, including those loved ones who insist they need assistance. The young'uns are about to find out who's really in the driver's seat (and I hope they find out at night for an extra added shot of adrenaline). Great roles for 2 senior actresses who just want to show you there's still some gas in the tank.
