Make 'em Laugh performs at the theater at Sterling Middle School. Each performance includes all six plays plus Mission: Impromptu.

Make 'em Laugh is an anthology of ORIGINAL comedy sketches, ranging from a few minutes to up to 30 minutes
long. Each script is unique and is geared toward getting the most laughs from the audience. It's a great opportunity
for new actors to test their skills, and for experienced actors to try some unusual comic roles. In past Playmakers
anthologies, actors have played such diverse roles as lovers, muggers, doctors, lawyers, deejays, robots, and
zombies!
