TWINS by Scott Werntz ( from Fun Kit chapter three , " Easy Starter Skits " pages 43-46 )
( The lights come up and we see two individuals sitting next to one another . They are wearing nylon stockings over their heads . The audience will realize later in the skit that they are twins inside their mother ' s womb .)
# 1 : Ouch . Would you please get your elbow out of my ear ! # 2 : Well excuse me ! And anyway , it ' s not my elbow , it ' s my foot ! # 1 : That does it , I can ' t take it anymore . I ' m getting out of here . # 2 : You can ' t leave , you ' re not ready yet . And besides , I ' m closer to the door . # l : Well I can fix that ! (# 1 starts kicking real hard ) Let me out , let me out ! # 2 : Stop kicking ! You ' re gonna make her roll over . ( Suddenly they roll over onto each other so that they end up sideways on top of one another with their front sides facing the audience . As they roll onto each
other they start moaning and complaining . # 1 ends up on top of # 2 .)
# 2 : Now look what you ' ve done . # 1 : Do you think I like laying on my side all night ?
# 2 : No . But she likes sleeping on her right side , and I always end up on the bottom .
