  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Unfrozen (A Monologue)

    This is a heart breaking story of Asa's love for a sock puppet. But maybe it is also about Asa's inability to truly embrace self-love. Mr. K definitely doesn't love himself, despite the successful show with Asa. And describing depression through a hand puppet, as well as love, is just magical.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Moonless Night

    This sweet, sad and dark 10 minute is really a snapshot of the human condition. We crave love (in all of its forms) but the responsibility of committing to a love is often too much. Mia and Alan have an "arrangement" that works, for the most part. But it isn't sustainable. In many ways. It's interesting to ponder what their future might be, but truly the only thing that matters for them is right now. A great character study in connection.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: New Year's Eve

    This play, with its funny moments of Mr. Hollins' sass and Laura's attempts to deflect, still hits hard in the feels. New Year's Eve is supposed to be a night where you look forward to the future, but in this retirement home, sometimes it's hard to see a future at all. The end leaves you with a little hope. And I hope Mr. Hollins gets his glass of champagne!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: CYRANO ON THE MOON

    A beautiful way to give everyone in the Cyrano story a happy ending, but more importantly, the lessons they may have missed before they passed from this life. This would be a beautiful piece to stage.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Interventions

    I love a play that can be interpreted so many different ways. Should these two be together or not? Why is this moment so important? So much fun and a great challenge for the actor playing the daughters!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Into Me (A Love Story)

    There are so many ways to interpret this love story. Is it a story of someone in love with someone/something else that can only bring pain, no matter how much they try to heal with love? Or is this a magical love story where love transcends even corporeal bodies? "A fish may love a bird, but where would they live?" And again, this love story leads back to pain. But isn't that what the price of all love is, in the end? No one has love without pain, but the little sparks in between? That's what matters.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Romeo & Juliet & Velociraptors

    What if Shakespeare wrote a scifi horror? This would be it. Action, blood and of course, romance at the end of it all. This is so well written in the style of Shakespeare, but with all the fights and blood that will keep everyone's heart racing with their butts on the edges of seats! I wonderfully good time for all!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Ahavah

    This is so sweet. This is true love. Between Saul and his Bubbie, certainly. But perhaps the start of a real future for Alice and Saul as well. Once he was able to be true to himself and face his family, his future with Alice is that much brighter. Even though the discovery comes at a sad moment in his life, Bubbie was still able to fill him with hope and the love of his family. Beautiful.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: A Brandy to Stoke the Flames

    I adore Lady Crawley! What a wonderful character for an older actor to tackle. The subtle humor involving the audience members as characters in her world is just brilliant. I was immediately charmed by her stories and I know the audience will be, too!. "The bride wore white." Absolutely laughed out loud at that snarky comment!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: A Story of a Laundry Girl

    Oh wow. What a history to unpack. We know so much better now, but that doesn't mean women don't still suffer like Kerrigan did. It is so wonderful that RFW is bringing light to this terrible mark in women's history. These characters are so full of depth. This is definitely worth exploring further!
