Wooster Footlights Does Star Wars

A long, long time ago, on a small liberal arts college campus far away, back before there was the internet and back when there were only 3 Star Wars movies, the Wooster Footlights Radio Comedy Troupe had a weekend reunion.

They got together to perform one last time on WCWS, the station of their beloved College of Wooster which many of them had graduated by then (April 1994). The day after the last show, they were fooling around on the quad with a video camera when someone suggested they do an improv version of Star Wars. This they then did, with only two Frisbees, some plastic swords, a few water pistols, and two bagels.

With a supporting cast of whoever was hanging around Douglas Lounge that afternoon, the Wooster Footlights group produced a faithful retelling of that epic film. Well, at least more faithful than any of the later Prequels.

[Many apologies for the quality (degrading VHS tape), acting, special effects, sound quality (it was windy that day, imagine that at Wooster), and especially the dated "Lois & Clark" reference]
