Booking for Saturday Afternoon Pictures

Come and watch "The Muppet Christmas Carol" on our big screen at St Peter's.

Charles Dickens meets Kermit, Gonzo and Miss Piggy in Brian Henson’s wonderfully charming The Muppet Christmas Carol.

This seasonal favourite captures the Muppets’ irreverent humour while staying surprisingly true to the spirit of Dickens’s story. Michael Caine brings complete dramatic conviction to Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly Victorian businessman surrounded by a felt-and-fur cast: Kermit plays the long-suffering Bob Cratchit, Miss Piggy his formidable wife, Fozzie Bear is Scrooge’s former employer, and Gonzo an unlikely Dickens. As the ghosts guide Scrooge through Christmases past, present and yet to come,

he confronts the loneliness of a life shaped by bitterness. Meanwhile, songs, slapstick and the Muppets’ trademark anarchy

keep the darkness in balance. Few adaptations blend Dickens’s ghosts, poverty and moral seriousness so naturally with

singing vegetables and wisecracking rats. The result is an enduring celebration of the Muppets’ singular ability

to find sincerity in silliness.

With cakes and refreshments.
