  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Win and Tim and the Unlikelihood of Living Forever [a 1-minute play]

    This play is a sigh. A sunset. A snapshot of time we all want to linger in. The setting is a painting and I want to live there forever with the love in the air around Win and Tim.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Playing With Dolls

    This is such a sweet play. When two strangers come together to trade dolls and fears. It doesn't come easy. I think the theme of parenting and manly stereotypes is handled so skillfully in these quick pages. A great addition to any evening of theatre and actors will love tackling these roles!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: How to Audition for a Play if You're a Girl

    So relatable to anyone who has participated in academic theatre. Student performers will revel in performing the truth of this piece. What a great exercise to bring a cast together as one!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Closing Doors

    This is such a scary concept that parents, teachers and students have to live with every day. Yes, rules are in place to ensure the greatest number of students are safe and secure. But good teachers see their students as more than just numbers/statistics. And the people in charge of the schools have no choice but to see them as numbers/statistics. And this play hovers in that grey area. We wish we had answers. Instead, we just get rules.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: You’re My Favorite

    This monologue, with all of its sweet, innocent words of love, hurts so much. I'm crying now as I type this recommendation. But I think even Lady knows, love isn't free. There is always a price to pay. Such a beautiful insight to the innocence of love. And end of life is never the end of love.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: My Body

    Wow. I. Love. This. Play. Is it wrong that I wish this could be our world? Just for a little while? Yeah, it's wrong. But this play is oh so right! I would love to see this performed. I am sure the design team would have fun designing the collar, too!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Dog Park Afternoon

    This is a sweet little "pupcake" of a play. When strangers bond over dogs and baked goods, magic happens. Also some misunderstandings. But as long as there are cupcakes and belly rubs at the end, everyone will leave the dog park happy. This will be a fun play for student actors, but a very fun challenge for student sound designers as well!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Three Anne Franks

    In a surreal, yet frank play about actors vying to be in a play about a real turned surreal historical character, 3 actors and a props master dig deep into the world of Anne Frank. When the atrocities of the past become nothing more than props to a story, do we lose the humanity of the moment? Is it important to be exactly who Anne was to understand her? This play is beautiful while still being funny and relatable.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: The Improv Class

    I got to the last couple of pages of this seemingly goofy and slapstick play highlighting the pain of doing improv with an inflexible partner...and then I gasped. Fighting tears, I got to THE END. This was BRILLIANT. I can't believe how real it suddenly got and I have to give major kudos to Connon. I hope this play gets so many productions and awards. It deserves it.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Taylor-Made

    This is such a sweet play about the worries new parents have as they imagine their potential child. It covers everything from gender and its wide spectrum, to religion, to the simple physical attributes. Funny without actually discounting or making fun of anything, this play is so well written and deep! This would be a great addition to an evening of theatre or even to be performed for a group of expectant parents! (Even those adopting, to be honest) I select "Y" on this play!
