M.A.D Society improv skits are like Saturday Night Live sketches—actors respond to prompts with no prior practice, creating spontaneous comedy.

These skits require minimal prep, making them a perfect addition to theater performances, community shows, or even as a fun bonding activity for theater clubs, youth groups, homeschool co-ops or school staff. A pre-assigned narrator guides the scene while the cast and crew enjoy the surprise elements on stage.

Each skit includes stage placement guides, music suggestions, and a Pinterest board for inspiration. Plus, you’ll get a free skit icon for marketing.

Who: This is an opportunity for the entire cast and crew to interpret a story that is read to them providing funny improv and energy to the Variety Show without prep work.

What: This is a performance consisting of a story that 1 designated student or adult will read out loud, while the rest of the cast and crew act out the story on stage. There is no prep work. It should be spontaneous. This Group Improv Skit does recommend purchasing cheap sunglasses for the actors to put on. The sunglasses will aid in helping the actors feel more comfortable dancing, but they are not required. You will need to remove the line about handing out sunglasses if you choose not to provide those.

Why: This is an act that will provide more content for your Variety Show without the typical prep work of a play or skit. It’s also wonderful for bonding within the group to do something all together and include the crew.
