I am cry laughing over here!!

Back in the 90s, a story went going around the FK lists about how John Kapelos and Nigel Bennett had done a dramatic reading of “Green Eggs and Ham” at a con. Of course, that would have been amazing to see, but I remember it was also fun to hear about.

Turns out, someone recorded it on video tape, which I only recently discovered.

In the 90s, it was very difficult to share videos online. Even if you could convert tape to a digital format, something like that would take forever to upload or download (forget streaming) because most who had the internet had dial-up, which was S L O W. Anyway, people did mail tapes to each other, but I don’t remember hearing about this tape and never saw it.

But we’re in the 21st century now with much improved technology. And someone took that video and put it on YouTube where I stumbled across it while nosing around for old FK stuff. Video quality is meh (I mean, it's a transfer from a tape), but the audio is great, which is what really matters here.

I'm probably the last person to know about this being available online, but it was worth the 26 year wait, OMG :-D

Here it is on YouTube: John Kapelos and Nigel Bennett in character reading of Dr. Seuss's "Green Eggs and Ham."
