Acting, drama, and being funny

It's a New Student Welcome Night tradition to have an uproariously hilarious skit. Generally, we get there. But it's not without logging serious hours, jumping up and down, putting on costumes, taking them off, moving props around, and repeating some lines over and over and over again to get it just right. It's a high bar to reach NSWN-readiness, and by the end of all the practices, pretty much everyone on the skit team can recite each other's lines just as well as they can recite their own.

The inestimable Josh, theater arts major, is skit director, and taking the stage is James, Annie, Steve, Jacob, and Angela. Of course, it's about the behind-the-scenes peeps too: Sang on music, and Wanda taking care of props and costumes. The plan, as far as I know, is they're scheduling about 18 hours of practice in the next two weeks so they'll be stage-ready and funny. The first won't be a problem. The second... well... we'll have to wait and see...!
