Fan site for Stephen Colbert and the Colbert Report
For those of you who have seen the small bits and pieces of the infamous “Maya Angelou” sketch that have floated around since the Second City Alumni show in December 2009, I know you will appreciate this adorable video of Stephen and Steve rehearsing the sketch before the show, along with a rendition of a song that I think was written especially for this sketch when it was originally performed. Enjoy!

Thanks so much to one of our longtime Zoners MaryLovesColbert (who also blogs over at LiveJournal as shoebox_addict if you’d like to friend her) for this lovely writeup on the event earlier today.
