Off Center hosts “Grandma Ran Over a Reindeer”

On Friday and Saturday nights, Off Center hosted “Grandma Ran Over a Reindeer,” their final sketch comedy show of the semester. The show featured 17 unique sketches and 19 individual performers, nearly filling BC 122 on both nights.

“I think we had really good, top quality sketches,” said Chris Fitzgerald, the newly elected “Captain Hook” (President) of Off Center. “I think it was a great show and that our writing is getting better and better.” The humorous acts included “Friday Night Fever,” “Oscar the Grinch,” and “Getting Away with Stuff in College.”

This was Off Center’s first time performing three sketch shows in a single semester rather than two. The reason they performed three this semester is because they wanted to hold “Post Orientation,” a sketch show for freshmen to enjoy, early on in the semester.

While having three sketch shows in a semester was a first for Off Center, it was the last show under the fall 2015 executive board. The members of the new Off Center executive board are Captain Hook (President) Chris Fitzgerald, Improv Stool (Improv Head) Matt Colozzo, Mr. Smee (Vice President) Bill Cusik, Uncle Pennybags (Treasurer) Kevin Birk, and Keeper of the Scrolls (Secretary) Phil Donaus.
