Skits & Storytelling/02-01

Santa's Big Secret Skit  


Cast: Santa, Reporter, Elves (any number).
Costumes: Santa outfit, Scout uniforms under jackets - elves wear
jackets and knit hats or hooded sweatshirts.
Props: Toy-making equipment and bags, microphone.
Setting: Elves are in the background working, making toys, or putting
toys in sacks. Santa is directing them when the reporter comes out
with the microphone.
Reporter: This is Scoop Smith, the roving reporter for radio
station KCUB on the scene here at Santa's workshop. Santa, may
we have a word with you, please?
Santa: Oh, sure, we're really busy getting ready for our deliveries.
What can I do for you?
Reporter: All of our listeners want to know how you got into the
gift business. Did your father give gifts or what?
Santa: Well, it all began when I was 7 or 8 years old… I just
started doing good deeds, you know, helping people and
such…and it became a habit.
Reporter: Good deeds, huh. That sounds familiar. Say, what is under that jacket?
Santa: That's my best-kept secret. (Opens jacket)
Reporter: A CUB SCOUT UNIFORM!!! You're a Cub Scout?
Santa: Yes, well, no. I WAS a Cub Scout, then a Boy Scout, and then a Venture. I wear this uniform
to remind me of where it all started…way back years and years ago. I just love helping other people and
doing good things.
Reporter: Well, that explains your involvement. But how do you get all these elves to help you?
Santa: Show the man. (Elves open their jackets to show Cub Scout uniforms.)
