"Boy, that's scary stuff! Should we be worried about the kids in the audience?" – Rizzo the Rat

Why watch this? A classic story with our favorite Muppets in key roles.

Plot Summary: This muppet musical adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic tale is narrated by Gonzo as Charles Dickens and Rizzo the Rat. The story follows the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge on Christmas Eve as he is visited by the ghosts of his former business partners and three Christmas spirits. These spectral visitors show Scrooge his past, present, and potential future, prompting him to reflect on his life and consider a change of heart.

Dad's Preview: This is a perfect vehicle to showcase the multitude to Muppet characters from TV's The Muppet Show. The whole gang is here: Kermit, Ms. Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Gonzo, Animal, Sam Eagle. It's a delightful musical trip through the whole story including the ghosts of Christmas and Ebenezer's path to redemption. God bless Michael Caine for his delicate portrayal in the role of Mr. Scrooge.
