The film has become a staple of the holiday season, with many fans considering it one of the best adaptations of Dickens’ work.
Until the live concert version opens its doors from November 21, fans can relive the film on Disney+ or check out an extended cut with the beloved song “When Love Is Gone.”
But for those looking to experience the magic of The Muppet Christmas Carol like never before, make sure to grab tickets to this extraordinary holiday event.
In The Muppet Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens’ classic Christmas story gets a whimsical, puppet-filled twist. Kermit the Frog takes on the role of Bob Cratchit, the long-suffering clerk employed by the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge, played by the ever-charismatic Michael Caine. Gonzo steps into the shoes of Dickens himself, narrating the tale with his usual flair, while Rizzo the Rat adds his comedic touch as his sidekick.
