Contagious Ward Skit

Materials:
pregnant woman costume, nurse costume.

Characters:
pregnant, nurse, 4 patients

Directions:
The room is set up like a doctor’s office with a nurse at the desk. The first person comes in and says that they have an appointment to see the doctor and sits down. The second person comes in sneezing like crazy, says that they have an appointment and then sits down. Gradually the first person starts to sneeze and the second person sneezes less and less, until only the first person is sneezing. The second person notices that he/she isn’t sneezing anymore and then walks out.

Another person comes in coughing uncontrollably, says that they have an appointment, and then sits down. Gradually the first person starts to cough (while still sneezing) and the third person coughs less and less, until only the first person is coughing (and sneezing). The third person notices that he/she isn’t coughing anymore and then walks out. The same thing happens with someone who is itching all over, until finally a pregnant woman walks in. The first person screams and runs out of the room.
