253 - Meeting Henry Flagler

Another video project. ABET had 3 performance of the one-man production, "Wild Dreams - Discovering Henry M. Flagler. One would think that one man droning on and on about the life of someone would be boring, but it actually wasn't. There was just enough movement for it not to be a lecture. Paul Jellinek was dressed in period clothing, and had the Flagler mustache to boot!

Having grown up in South Florida, I was very familiar with the places that Flagler helped develope. From St. Augustine, down to Palm Beach and finally into the Keys.

After Paul finished Act II, he sat down for a question/answer session ... and yes, I kept the video rolling for that. Many questions were asked about Flagler's family.

I believe he does his show fairly regularly in St. Augustine at the San Marco Theatre. I encourage everyone to try to get down and see it!
