  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Mystery Date

    Another great physical comedy from Kate Danley! This will be fun for the actors and uproariously funny for the audience! What a great piece to add to an evening of theatre. Make sure MEET THE FAMILY is on the program, too!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Here, There and Everywhere: Eleven Short Plays for Teens

    I am one of those people who wondered what happened to Rosalind. I am also one of those people who rolled their eyes at how quickly Romeo and Juliet decided they were madly in love. This scene validates my anti-romantic leanings and I love it for that! Rosalind deserved better.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: The Cold Hit

    This play did not go where I thought it would and I love it! It starts off as two co-workers having a conversation about work and life...except these co-workers are hired goons, so the conversation is anything but mundane. And their target is a mystery. Typically these two wouldn't care who their target is, but on this job, it may be important! Funny and full of tension!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: The Play of Excessive Exposition, Stereotypical Characters, and Cliches

    There are so many laugh out loud moments in this SUPER META play! I love the winks to theatre organizations who may be reading and considering to produce this piece, too. Absolutely brilliant. This is the only way to make exposition entertaining!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Memory (short play)

    Oh this is so powerful, but like an open scene from acting class, I am sure I am putting my own meaning into the words. Which, anyone who reads this likely will. And of course, it will be very powerful for each reader as well. The vague character names and spotty memory of one opens this up to infinite possibilities, but all end in how easily a memory can slip away, no matter how important it may have been.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Do Something

    Wow. Floyd represents a lot of men who are so blind to what women live with daily. But we get to see a spark of recognition as he goes through his day. It feels like we have hope. The last line hits hard, but the last bit of blocking hits even harder. The women surrounding Floyd throughout this play are a ballet of frustrations and will be extremely effective to audiences.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Oh, Dear God, Dad is a Feminist

    What an unlikely lovely moment in an Emergency waiting room! Father and Daughter are clearly a great team, but in this moment, they get to share even more with each other. Learning things about the other they never would have known if they weren't trapped in one spot for an indefinite amount of time. And even more fun, for the audience, we get to hear their internal thoughts as these revelations are made. A wonderful piece for two actors with great timing and chemistry.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Dear Bertie (A letter from a mother to her son.)

    OMG, classic Readers Digest comedy! Absolutely silly from the very first line and the actor will have to pause for laughs a lot, making this a much longer monologue than anticipated. Laughs/groans, whatever. They're all the same when it comes to "dad/mom" jokes!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Eesha's Dilemma

    Eesha and Fariq are great characters. You can see their love for each other, despite Fariq's obstinate pride. This might be a great scene to have discussions after about tactics in marriage discussing difficult topics without being insensitive or unloving.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: The Doctors Call

    This is a great medical scene study on how to deliver bad news, but also, how to accept it.
