How to find a Christian Theater skit


If you’re like any other Church, trying to put up a good drama can be difficult.  The hardest part is trying to find a decent script.  Where do you find one that is not cheesy, isn’t afraid of good humor, and still has a message that will speak to all generations.

Many years ago I stumbled into a group named Ted and Lee.  Now, Lee has since left us, but Ted has regrouped and is still producing amazing things.  Ted and Company produce two man comedies that make you laugh while at the same time thinking, “WOW, that was really deep!”  They have many biblical scripts to choose from with cheap performances rights.  I gathered two of my strong male actors together at the end of last school year, and we produced Fish Eyes a full script consisting of 14 scenes that takes you through the Calling of the Disciples, to the day after the Sermon on the Mount, to Peter’s Denial, and on to Breakfast on the Beach.  This is a two man retelling of the Gospel through the eyes of Andrew and Peter.  We performed it for a chapel here at the school and it was warmly received.  We also performed it at a couple of Churches and the message and reception was amazing.  These are wonderful around Easter or really anytime.  Check out the website listed earlier or go check them out on Youtube
