Adjusting a Skit to Fit Your Theme

Today, I am adding a free downloadable skit to our website resources.  The original title of the skit is “Miss Bold and Beautiful 2012” and is a very short, two-act skit based on a beauty pageant.  It was written to fit a theme from Nehemiah, which speaks in Neh. 4:17 about how the Israelites accomplished God’s will and rebuilt the wall by holding a hammer in one hand (to build) and a sword in the other (to fight the enemy).  When you read the skit, you will see that the winner of the pageant, Wendy Warrior, is described and scripted in such a way as to work with that theme.

But this is a skit that can easily be adjusted to fit your theme.  For instance, if your theme was centered on the Proverbs 31 woman, the pageant winner’s description and dialogue could be revised to fit that theme.  In rewriting the script, you can follow the flow of the current script, and yet customize it for your particular use!  If you are reluctant to try your hand at this, get a group of friends together and brainstorm.  You may be surprised at the talent your friends possess.

Download the skit here, revise it and use it!  It is a fun and easy to produce skit with few props.  There are no copyright considerations to be concerned about.  It can be used for just about any event.  Let us know how you did!
