Cowley to hold its own version of "SNL" during Thursday Night Live

Cowley College’s Act One Drama Club and the Cowley College Singers are sponsoring Thursday Night Live at 7:30 p.m. Thursday in the Robert Brown Theatre inside the Brown Center. Admission is $2 for an evening of fun and laughter.

Students have been working on skits that are take-offs from the hit show “Saturday night Live”, which is a two-time Emmy Award-winning weekly late-night 90-minute variety show based in New York City that has been broadcast by NBC on Saturday nights since October 11, 1975.

“It’s always a fun night and an opportunity for our students to strut their stuff,” said Cowley College director of theatre and theatrical services Scott MacLaughlin.

Along with the skits there will be performances by the Cowley College Singers. The money raised from the show will go towards the Act One Drama Club and the Cowley College Singers.
