Wall, The

Ideal for a six or patrol, this skit calls for three or four members standing close together, backs to the audience, as the wall; one to play an employee leaning against the wall, and one to play the boss. The scene opens with the employee leaning against the wall. The boss walks in, looks at some papers, sees the idle employee, and stops. Boss: You there! What's your name? Employee: Billy Bob, sir. Boss: Well, what do you think you're doing, leaning against that wall like you're holding it up. Employee: But, I am holding it up, sir. (Boss splutters angrily and tells the employee what a useless, good-for-nothing he is. Employee protests, but in vain.) Boss: You're fired! Get out! (The employee edges out along the wall, still trying to protest. The boss turns to the audience: the wall creaks.) Boss: Imagine! That lazy son-of-a-gun trying to tell me he was holding up... (The wall noisily falls on the boss, who collapses under it with a scream.)
