Short Skits - Tom Spence - Bog

Sometimes you just need to change the way you do things. Sometimes a short skit is the right answer. Sometimes there just isn't time to do that, or is there? These are for churches and youth groups or drama teams, but just about anyone can handle a part in these short skits. These short skits are designed to be put into use without extensive rehearsals. One or two read-throughs with some motivated cast members can cut the prep time to 20 minutes in a crunch. These short skits do not have to be memorized. The script or some notes can be hidden behind something on stage so the actors can glance at them and stay in character at the same time. The set for each skit can be as elaborate or Spartan as is desired and as time permits. Most props will be readily available in the church or among the cast members' households and will not need to be made or purchased. Youth groups and even adults will enjoy presenting these and watching them. They may be preceded or followed by a message or used as standalone messages. Use these to change the pace and have a little fun while you bring glory to God.
