Pull a Lawrence Welk and do a song and dance number. It’ll be different, and if you blast the music maybe the people in the third row will be able to hear what’s going on for once.
Invite your awesome staff buds to be in your group’s skit. Make sure to practice in a common area like the firepit or canteen porch so none of you is overstepping set boundaries.
Do one of the skits that was also done at the previous four camps. The permanent camp staff and the counselors who are there every other week want to see it for the hundredth time, and their Skit Night won’t be complete if they don’t see a bunch of suckers in a candy store or witness a centipede pee on someone.
Have a game show. It doesn’t matter what game show as long as you incorporate camp into the skit and make it funny. This is such a unique idea. You can be sure nobody’s ever thought of it before!
Somehow get the dean in your skit and soak them. Make sure they’ve already filled out your counselor evaluation before you get the to ‘volunteer.’
Get Charlton Heston to star in your skit. Then it doesn’t matter how bad it is, everyone will like it anyway.
Make sure the kids know what they’re doing and that they speak up. If they don’t know what’s going on, they probably aren’t going to give Emmy award winning performances.
If your group doesn’t come up with anything good, put a ticking alarm clock in a box under a pew, and when the dean calls your group’s number, stand up and scream, "There’s a bomb in the chapel! Everyone run for you life!" Then you won’t have to do a skit.
Throw candy at the audience. They’ll forget how bad your skit is if they get some really yummy treats out of the deal!
If you use these suggestions, you’ll be guaranteed to have a smash hit on skit night!
