Director Chris Heady put on a play at his high school featuring the Monkey Island license. I just so happened to live 20 minutes away, and without further adieu... here they are. (All below are linking to subtitled versions.) Hosted by World Of Monkey Island. Originally I wanted all three of the Monkey Island sites (World of Monkey Island, Legend of Monkey Island and The Scumm Bar to switch weeks at releasing an episode, but only World Of MI was able to make the dates, so they received all distribution releases. I want to thank them for their enthusiasm and their help, especially Dalixam.)
You can either use the links below, or use Google Video as the MI Play was recently added to it. Check it out here.

| [World of MI] are very proud to be able to present the first part of the MI play recording to you. The first clip is 10 minutes long and the next clip will be released next week, so don't freak out if the ending seems a bit abrupt :). The whole video is recorded, edited, and distributed by Scummbuddy of LucasStyle Entertainment, so he deserves all the credit. |

| MI Play - Part 8 |
|
Yarr, I wanted the thrilling conclusion to the events that unfolded upon Monkey Island to be revealed on the annual “Talk Like A Pirate Day’ but alas, that did not happen. But you may still celebrate the day, by reading along with the now-subtitled episode 8, and let me say, for square-zies, that the final chapter, nine, is so close, you should be able to taste it, if not for you losing your tongue in a vicious battle between you and your parrot. Crackers couldn’t keep his mouth shut, but now you’re the one who can’t talk.
Episode 8 – Part 3 – Under Monkey Island
See Guybrush con the good people on the island into adding to his inventory! Watch the dramatic opening of ‘The Giant Monkey Head’! Will the Head of the Navigator bite Guybrush as he tries to wrangle the necklace away? Will Guybrush be amused at the spontaneous ghost pirate’s jig? Will Guybrush be able to locate the root, to later create an anti-plasma ghost solution? Will Guybrush gain the respect of the local fauna? Find out [again for some] in today’s release of Episode 8 – Under Monkey Island! |
