A NOSE FOR THE TRUTH

FLIGHT 227
This sketch illustrates the levels to which we commit ourselves to anything. The names of the characters are the Latin words that define these relationships. Notitia refers to only the factual content of a relationship. Assensus is a step up from Notitia in that it involves a commitment of loyalty. Fiducia is simply trust.

SCHEDULING OURSELVES TO DEATH
A husband and wife sit down with their schedules to coordinate their week. Simple enough. An everyday occurrence. But something's a little out of focus here. They each have multiple cell phones, pagers and e-mail accounts, and the kid have hectic schedules and cell phones as well. This sketch will likely hit a little close to home for many in the audience, but it's a good reminder of how easy it is to overschedule ourselves.
