Recommendations of The Baked Alaska Incident

  • Philip Middleton Williams: The Baked Alaska Incident

    Weaving between Mel Brooks satire, SNL parody, and an Irwin Allen disaster flick, Jacquie Floyd-Priskorn takes us to Anchorage -- a lovely city, by the way -- and turns it into a laboratory for a crazed tech rich guy to show his latest acquisition. What could possibly go wrong, especially when it's shown live on the local morning show with your giddy anchors and field reporters? The message, delivered with rapier-like precision, is a punch delivered with a maniacal laugh.

  • Jennifer O'Grady: The Baked Alaska Incident

    What happens when a tech trillionaire thinks he can do (and own) exactly what he wants is at the heart of this very funny satire set during the live broadcast of an Alaskan morning show. Floyd-Priskorn skillfully conveys an important and timely message while providing lots of fast-moving and theatrical entertainment. With a flexible cast of 4 to 25 actors, this would be a super-fun for theaters and schools to stage.

  • John Busser: The Baked Alaska Incident

    11.29.24 - With one foot in entertainment TV and the other in CNN, Jacquie Floyd shows us the foolishness of our culture as we lap up both with reckless abandon. Looking for that next endorphin rush we eagerly embrace a dessert just as quickly as we allow the rich to indulge their most ludicrous whims (kinda like real life, isn’t it?). In fact, this could almost be subtitled “Just Desserts”. I’m a sucker for what Jacquie’s serving up. May I have some more please?
