On Friday, Brandeis' False Advertising, Skidmore College's Sketchies, Brown University's Beasts of Funny and Boris' Kitchen performed at the Third Annual Sketch Comedy Festival, hosted by Brandeis' own Boris' Kitchen. The night started with a great performance from False Advertising. They began with a "choir of emotions," in which every member was given an emotion and had to perform that emotion "in tune" with the other emotions. Next, they did movie reviews, overusing the word horse.

Their set ended with a skit on feminism, which turned from the topic subject completely and ended up being a skit on using fun big animals to help get little girls bigger allowances. Who knew feminism had so many faces? The laughter from the very large audience certainly told FA that they hadn't minded the change in subject and still loved the entire sketch.

Skidmore's Sketchies performed next. They danced around with gigantic upper bodies and no heads, to the tune of "Where's your Head at?" Then, another guy, dressed like an door-to-door salesman, walked in with four heads to be placed on their empty necks. Very amusing.

After that, the Sketchies did a skit about the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew, illustrating how they really just try to catch robbers and do not really do anything, making fun of the childhood classics. Then, the screen came down and the audience was treated to a live video game with two runners, points and a race through the school. The setup was brilliant, even including music you would expect to hear in a video.

The Sketchies ended their set with another movie, done in Charlie Chaplin-esque style, featuring a bad guy, a "girl" tied up on train tracks and the good guy, who turned out to be a cow.

After a 15-minute intermission, all the groups got on stage and performed the game "Last Action Joke," in which words were taken from the audience and the actors had to use them in a clever Arnold Schwarzenegger tag lines. Words of the night included "chair," "brownies" and the ever popular "condom," which brought in the most laughs.

When the game ended, Brown's Beasts of Funny performed. The topic of one specific joke included dipping your scrotum in the hottest, spiciest salsa you could ever taste. After that, the audience watched as two couples had dinner and played charades.

When the skit was over, they staged a date between two people on a gondola on the Charles River, who gasped as they told each other of their sick, disgusting habits including administering sleeping pills to have their way with each other, drilling holes in the ceilings of showers and using hypnotism to get them to do all of those things. You could tell the audience did not think very highly of that particular skit. Their set ended with rhyming cowboys and another mention of the salsa.

The night ended with a performance of Brandeis' own Boris' Kitchen, and they completed the night of comedy. One skit, "Simple Things," about a couch and orgasmic screaming, another one called "the gift that keeps on giving," and a skit with a fairy godmother definitely brought in some laughs. All their skits were very amusing, but by that time the audience was laughed out.

The night ended on a positive note and everything that was done helped to bring in a good amount of money for the charity. The night was successful. A good end to the beginning of The Third Annual Sketch Comedy Festival. .
