OUR COMEDY
The Skits are Cornell's original sketch comedy group.
What We Do
As a sketch comedy group, we perform short sketches (think Saturday Night Live and Key and Peele). These sketches are usually 2-3 minutes in length, and usually contain jokes. Every semester, we do an hour long showcase of all-new sketch comedy written, edited, and performed by us. You can also find us doing several smaller shows throughout the semester both on- and off-campus.
How We Do it
We have three meetings a week to write and edit our original material. As we get closer to our biyearly show, we get real nervous and scramble to select our best material to perform. Two weeks of rehearsals and extremely supportive constructive criticism later, we put it on stage. After that, we cease to exist as people until the following semester. Our existence is purely fueled by you believing in we are real, and without that it’s just the dark, endless void.
How You can reach us
We’re most easily reached via email at skitscomedy@gmail.com or in our Instragram DM’s! You can also feel free to email our President or Vice President. We’ve also partial to smoke signals, bells, sirens, and treats to lure us out of our cave.
