  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Troped to Death

    As soon as the voice said "two of ten," I knew the ride I was in for and I was so excited! This is a fascinating short that really is as funny as it is introspective, shining a mirror on the audience as well. What is it about horror that keeps us coming back for more? This needs to be part of your horror festival!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: LATE BLOOMER

    Wow! Plant therapy is just as good as people therapy! Some of the things Dr. Ryan says are just so poetic and should be painted on barn wood and sold at greenhouses! I actually could see this being performed at a greenhouse after hours cocktail event! It's meaningful, sophisticated and everyone who sees this play will feel their roots grow just a little more!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: NIGHT SHIFT HAPPENS

    This is such an eye opening story about hospital workers. I love the "talking head" monologues introducing the characters like in a reality, slice of life moment. This feels like the start of something full length. But as a one act, it sells a very real journey for the new nurse Isabella, and you can almost tell by the last few pages that she is exactly where she belongs. I would love to hear more from the mysterious ringing phone! What a cool device!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: THE SUBTLE, SUBLIME TRANSFORMATION OF BENNY V.

    Benny V is absolutely relatable and inspirational. If this isn't one of the most uplifting plays about hope and just living, I don't know much about hope and living! This is magical, yet super simplistic at the same time. This is a play that will leave audiences uplifted and motivated while the production team has so much freedom to make this play their own, unique work of art. I feel transformed, too!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Every Sheep Counts

    I cannot stress how brilliant this short play is. It really has so many layers and is so very funny! This play will have audiences thinking while they laugh, and maybe even squirm a little. This is one of my new favorite ten minute plays. Seriously.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: where are the angels in america?

    In this surreal memory play, not unlike Kushner's ANGELS IN AMERICA, we see very flawed and earnest human beings. No one is perfect, they just want to do what is best for the world they live in. Erika's line toward the end is extremely powerful and should make a lot of dimmed light bulbs turn on: "See, in a world with less homophobia, we can ensure our kids are having healthy relationships." This is a fun play that will hopefully start some important conversations!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Pigeon Winter

    The fast and sharp back and forth dialogue between these two characters will really let actors shine! But as truths and intentions are revealed the audience will be drawn in by the characters and their dark history together. And wonder what is performance and what is truth?

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: HOW TO FLY IN YOUR DREAMS

    "When all around you is darkness, maybe you are the light." Little Nemo is definitely the light in this wonderful story that gives children power over their own dreams and nightmares. For children, sleep can be scary. A dark room, mysterious stories and creatures that enter your dreams. But Nemo learns to control the dream world and teaches children that they too can fly in their dreams! A gentle play of whimsy and magic.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: The Hot Tub Play

    This is such a fun, real time comedy with a most unusual set...a hot tub! But you knew that from the title. What you don't know until you read are how fun the characters (both on stage and off) are! And as absolutely high level insane Laura comes off, she is likeable and relatable. An iconic role for a woman of a certain age. 44. They specifically say 44. But still! This is the weird meet cute for the over 40 crowd we've all been waiting for!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: SEVEN EXCRUCIATING MINUTES WITH JACQUIE AND JEFF - A FIRST DATE FABLE

    What a gift to have a time traveler as a friend able to document the first time you met your spouse. I mean, this is way off, I think Busser may have followed a different Jeff and Jacquie, but this is entertaining nonetheless! I see this playing like Peter Shaffer's BLACK COMEDY! Lots of laughs! I am honored by the comedy stylings of John Busser!
