Skit Description:
A camper notices that everyone around him seems to be shopping at the same place—JC Penny. One by one, campers walk by, each crediting “JC Penny” for their stylish outfit. Just when the pattern seems predictable, the final camper, wearing only a towel, appears, setting up the twist ending.
Script:
(Camper 1 stands center stage while the other campers are off to the side. One by one, they walk past Camper 1.)
Camper 1: (to first passing camper) “Hey, nice shirt! Where’d you get it?”
Camper 2: “JC Penny!” (exits stage)
(Another camper enters.)
Camper 1: “Nice pants! Where’d you get them?”
Camper 3: “JC Penny!” (exits stage)
(This continues with several campers, each being complimented on an item and responding with “JC Penny!” before exiting.)
(Finally, the last camper enters, wearing only a towel and looking around as if searching for someone.)
Camper 1: (confused) “Uh… who are you?”
Final Camper: (grinning) “I’m JC Penny!”
(Blackout or immediate laughter from the crowd!)
