The Sweet Spot – Comedy Sketch about Cell Phone Reception

$5.50

A group of people find themselves in an alleyway with shocking phone reception. One is about to win a radio competition, one is about to sell shares in a company and make a boatload of cash, one is a dognapper who needs to quickly sort out the drop off of 50K (or Fluffy gets it) and the other an irate vegan whose room mate refuses to wash the dishes. There’s just one problem – the cell phone reception in the alleyway is patchy at best. But there is one sweet spot – and they’ll just need luck to find it (and even more to hold onto it). A farcical comedy sketch about cell phone reception. There’s plenty of opportunity for those who enjoy physical comedy as well as character based comedy roles as well.
