This Creativity Institute "At the Doctor's Office" puppet show is an original puppet show script that's sure to get a laugh because it's 25 jokes, one after the other. The script has easy-to-read and easy-to-perform parts for five puppet characters, but three children could handle the parts as only two puppets are ever on stage at a time. The structure of the script revolves around 25 different jokes that are all old standard set-ups and punch lines. Some even originate in classic vaudeville routines. All are simple and elementary enough so that children can understand them and find them amusing. It's a fun puppet show for parties, scout meetings or just playing together, and a great way for children to entertain their parents!

Here's a short sample:

NURSE PUPPET ENTERS FROM STAGE LEFT:

NURSE: Doctor, Doctor come quick. A patient in the lobby just swallowed my pen.

DOCTOR: I'll be right there.

NURSE: What should I do in the meantime?

DOCTOR: Use a pencil. NEXT!

NURSE PUPPET EXITS STAGE LEFT AS FARMER PUPPET ENTERS FROM STAGE LEFT:

FARMER: Doctor, Doctor, did you get the results of my test?

DOCTOR: Yes, I did. And I have some good news and some bad news.

FARMER: Give me the bad news first.

DOCTOR: The bad news is that you have short-term memory loss. The good news is that you don't have a broken leg.

FARMER: But do I have a broken leg?
