The Muppets star in this heartwarming adaptation of Dickens’ festive tale, with Kermit the Frog as Bob Cratchit, Miss Piggy as Emily Cratchit and Gonzo as Charles Dickens, alongside Michael Caine as Ebenezer Scrooge.
On Christmas Eve, the miserly Scrooge is visited by three ghosts who show him the error of his ways - with plenty of songs, silliness and Muppet magic along the way.
Finger Puppets But They’re Muppets, led by Esther Marshall
Ever wanted your own portable version of The Muppet Christmas Carol? Bring along an old glove or tiny sock and turn it into your very own finger-puppet Muppet!
Fabric scraps, patterns, sewing needles, buttons and decorations will be provided. If sewing isn't your thing, you can make a festive collage or Christmas card instead - perfect for getting on the Muppets' nice list.
Hot glue will be available for less experienced sewers and must only be used by parents or facilitators.
Esther’s inspiration comes from Jim and Jane Henson, the creators of the original Muppets. They made the puppets themselves in the early days of The Muppets, before the team grew to include more artists and makers.
This film is rated U. For more information, please visit the BBFC website.
