LITTLE MISS MUFFET SKIT

Once upon a time, little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet. Hang on, what’s a tuffet? Hmmm …. turns out even the narrator doesn’t know. Moving on: “Eating her curds and whey. ” Hang on! Her order hasn’t even come yet! What kind of diner is this anyway? “Sorry, I’m coming!” yells the waitress as the narrator resigns. And let’s not even mention the problem with the spider in this Little Miss Muffet skit.

JULEO AND ROMIET – SKIT ON ROMEO AND JULIET

Short skit on Romeo and Juliet in which the ill fated couple from the town of Blurona meet and get secretly married. All the boring bits are cut out from the ever so long play (yawn) to focus on the final scene….the DEATH SCENE. It’s the Friar’s fault really. Having persuaded Romiet to drink his potion to fake her death, he finds that Juleo is missing (oh no!) and so he sets off in search of him to let him know it is only a trick, only to leave Juleo to find the “dead” Romiet, and stab himself in the heart thinking she is dead. So far so good. However Romiet wakes up, sees the plot has gone horribly wrong and decides to consult the original Shakespearean version to find out what happened, only to die of boredom!

And tonight on live television, things are about to get nasty in this short skit for 3 people.

Duelling Chefs has been written twice – one for an all female and one for an all male cast, depending on who is available.

MY LITTLE MERMAID – SKIT ON THE LITTLE MERMAID

In this skit on The Little mermaid, Arial, our little mermaid (Not to be confused with the font) has her eye set on Prince Error (an unfortunate name that he couldn’t really help) who is a human. The only way she can get married to him and have lots of little merchildren is to become human. Since she is just sixteen, she just doesn’t have a checking account or even a credit card so she gives the evil sea queen, ”Umbrella” her voice as payment.

But the story ends well – she gets her voice back. Although she kind of sounds like Pinky Pie, nobody minds, really. As long as she doesn’t sing. Ever!! And they live happily ever after.

DOCTOR DUPLICATE – SHORT MEDICAL SKIT

In this short, giggle filled medical skit, a doctor miraculously cures his patients – by taking their symptoms onto himself. When they’re sick, he gets their cold and cures them. When they stutter, he stammers his way to a cure for them. As the day goes on it gets funnier as the symptoms persist, one on top of the other. But when a pregnant lady arrives – well that’s just a bit too much for the good doctor!

ONE FINE DAY IN THE OPERATING ROOM – SHORT MEDICAL SKIT

In this short medical skit, set in the operating room, a team of incompetent medical staff including a surgeon, nurse and anesthesiologist and of course the unfortunate patient are being filmed for a brand new live television show, “Operation TV. ” Although viewers are warned that the show may be a bit ‘too intense’ for some people, it seems that operation TV is a success because no one likes watching a doc mess up more than a live TV audience.
