X’s and O’s – FIVE MINUTE COMEDY SKETCH FOR SENIORS

X’s and O’s is a five minute comedy sketch for an older couple set on their anniversary. They’re both slightly grumpy, as older people can be when they have outgrown the need for tact. The concept of the play is one in which the only dialogue spoken is the opposite of of what the other just said. The name X’s & O’s comes from thinking how, as in Tic-Tac-Toe they’re opposites, but at the same time, also Kisses and Hugs.
