Disney's Muppet Christmas Carol in Concert

A concert presentation of Disney's Muppet Christmas Carol, the Muppet adaptation of Dickens's A Christmas Carol, staged at Usher Hall in Edinburgh.

The Muppet Christmas Carol is a 1992 film in which the Muppets, created by Jim Henson, play Dickens's characters alongside Michael Caine as Scrooge. Directed by Brian Henson, with songs by Paul Williams, it follows Ebenezer Scrooge through the visits of three spirits. Gonzo plays Charles Dickens, narrating the story, while Rizzo the Rat keeps him company.

This concert presentation brings the Muppet version of the story to the Usher Hall stage, in the Christmas season, for audiences who know the film or the Dickens novella. Given its Disney and Muppet origins, the production is aimed at family audiences.

Usher Hall is a concert hall on Lothian Road in Edinburgh, which hosts concerts and shows across the year.
