Our "pub sing" group also encourages us to share recitations, and I know that there is a rich tradition of these out there. I'm looking for ideas.
(When I was in 2nd grade our teacher taught the entire class "A Visit From St Nicholas", and I know it cold.   However, I need some non-Christmas material!)
Currently, I'm recalling that some members do .....
The Lion And Albert
The Cremation Of Sam McGee

Other ideas ???????????
