Sketch-O-Frenia: Fifty Short and Witty Satirical Sketches

Rating:
Summary: For high school and community theater groups
Review: The collaborative effort of John Dessler and Lawrence Phillis, Sketch-O-Frenia offers drama department students fifty short and smartly written sketches that can be acted out on stage, in TV, or in film. Hilariously funny spoofs on simple activities of daily life range from video games, to hijacking an elevator, to restaurant dining, and more. Sketch-O-Frenia is irreverent yet hilarious fun. A disclaimer reads "Permission to reproduce copies and perform any of the drama sketches included in this text is granted to amateur groups with the purchase of this book", making Sketch-O-Frenia an ideal reference shelf enhancement for high school and community theater groups.

Review: Through out my travels in the theater world, never have i come across a book of comedy sketches so histarically funny yet suitable for highschool performers. This witty collection of comic shorts is to teen theater what the comic tool box is to writers. i highly recomend it be read not only for it's theatrical application but simply for pure enjoyment.
