It is another way to try and communicate to the PNMs what the chapter is like. You do talking throughout the rest of recruitment, and yet different qualities emerge when the skit is done. Inside jokes show the sisters are tight knit, yet too many will make PNMs feel ostracized. My chapter did amazingly after skit night even though we would sometimes struggle before that due to 'rep.' Our skit let PNMs know more about us (and we had some awesome dancers) than conversation was getting through to them.

This is all (or mostly) unconscious, I wasn't thinking about the 'why' during recruitment as a PNM or an active but it's there.
