"Artful Skits" pull the rug of expectation out from underneath the audience!




Your drama ministry will delight in accepting the challenge of illustrating the pastor's message with these unforgettable skits.

"Artful Skits" fall into six sub-categories: Dream Skits, in which surrealistic characters find themselves in odd situations that simply do not happen in "real life"; Metaphor Skits, where concrete items represent abstract ideas; Monologue Skits featuring a central character who takes a moment to "think about life" and delivers a monologue while the rest of the skit freezes; Rewind Skits, that turn back the clock, and reverse the action; Three-in-One Skits, where scenes from three separate--yet related--story lines alternate to make one point; and finally, Realistic Skits, that incorporate everyday situations to illustrate "real life" spiritual struggles.

"Artful Skits" provide very memorable introductions, conclusions, or midway examples for the pastor as he presents the church sermon. This category of skits gives your drama ministry a firsthand opportunity to link with the pastor to create a sermon illustration that will compliment any topical sermon.

Click on the links below to explore the scripts in the six categories of "Artful Skits."

 
Dream Skits

Dream Skits are surrealistic dramas in which the central character finds him or herself in a "Twilight Zone”- type situation that simply does not happen in real life, but these unreal happenings give real-world insights. The audience gets a firsthand look at psychological struggles as they manifest themselves in "odd" happenings.


 
Metaphor Skits

Metaphor Skits use concrete items to represent abstract ideas. Physical objects (props) help state the theme of the message. These skits use a surrealistic style to make their point; such as: a crown worn by a dominant person, or another actor falling over when someone speaks harshly to him.



 
Monologue Skits

Monologue Skits feature a central character who takes a moment to "think about life" and who delivers a monologue while the rest of the skit freezes. The audience gets a firsthand look at the psychological struggle that the events of the skit creates.



 
Rewind Skits

Rewind Skits turn back the clock, as actors reverse the action by replaying the scene backwards. Then, they begin it again; this time, they repair bad decisions, promote relationships, and undo the mess they found themselves in the first time.



 
Three-in-One Skits

Three-in-One Skits present three separate stories, told scene-by-scene, alternating with each other, yet together they make one point. When actors finish one scene, they freeze in position; their last line sets up the next actor's first line. Each scene resumes exactly where it ended, when it starts again. Each scene ends with the same conclusion or summary statement.


 
Realistic Skits

Realistic Skits incorporate more common “day-to-day” situations to illustrate the "real life" spiritual struggles people face. The characters struggle to understand or achieve something, that resonates with the audience, and sends them home with the steadfast truth that God is ever-present.
