  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: "Eight Aunt Marys"

    Even at the end of her life, Eileen has stories and sass to spare. You may never know what is the truth in her final revelations here, but you will be engaged and see how hard she worked to build a life and a name for herself, despite the many roadblocks the men in her life may have put forth. A powerful tale from a strong woman losing her strength.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: The Raven

    What begins as a true and honest adaptation of Poe's THE RAVEN, suddenly had me belly laughing at page 5! It continues to honor the source material very well, while holding a modern audience's attention by letting them in on a little behind the scenes detail for the performers of this poem. Very fun way to share Poe and poetry with the world!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: The Sticking Point (Ten Minute)

    Wow. This play tackles some very hard questions. Not just questions parents need to deal with, but all of us as human beings. There are no easy answers. There really aren't sides to take in this situation either. We just need to listen. Both parents here are doing what they think is best for their children. Unfortunately, their disagreement causes their children pain. But being a good parent means you can't always be the good guy. This will definitely need group discussion after the performance!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Yeah, Art Figures

    This play is so brilliantly crafted. The dialogue is some of the most natural dialogue I've encountered in a long while, and it is all about intelligence. How everyone is intelligent in different ways. And not in the "we're all special" kind of way, but how everyone reaches the answers to the same question via different mental paths. Art, music, math, athletics, they're all connected. And to say one has less value than another is just, like, wrong. This should be performed for educators!!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: The Window

    This play is an exercise in characterization and fast paced patter. Audiences will love it! I can imagine the fun design of fish in bowl with cat and it just makes me smile! But the dialogue will also really make you think if you can pay attention longer than our friend the fish.

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: SCRATCH-OFF SUNDAY

    The magic of this play is "enough." Absolutely fun and beautiful. It begins relatable and claustrophobic, trapped in a tiny apartment during the pandemic. But on Scratch Off Sunday, we get to dream with Jayson and Dagney. So full of whimsy, with opportunity for designers to execute a little stage magic!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Phones

    Oh wow! This is the start of a very intense and dark sci-fi concept of a play! I was hooked from the minute the woman sat down next to poor Barry. They are both very well drawn characters. But the phone as a device for Barry to get what he wants? Absolutely inspired! Definitely leaves you wanting more!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: reANIMA

    This sci-fi one act is absolutely beautiful. It really dives into the "mechanics" of what makes someone "human" and what can make you love another human. It's easy to say you love a person for who they are, not what they look like, but the darkest corners of our minds will always wonder what if? This is so deep and lovely. Cricket's final moment of gifting life to the plant is just soul feeding!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: Dinkers Taming Bangers

    This is an absolutely brilliant way to combine the massive popularity of pickleball with the sass of a Shakespearean style bet! This is the one act that will fill seats at your theatre! Including the stylized pickleball game scene that will have theatre lovers and pickleball players excited and talking about this show forever. What a great concept for a play!

  • Jacquelyn Floyd-Priskorn: You Need Nutmeg in Fishkill

    This play is insane in the best possible ways! Demonic/Americana with a murderous nuclear family. And the “he followed me home from school, can we keep him?” bit you would never expect! Now this is the laugh out loud gore fest we never knew we were missing!
