The Muppet Christmas Carol entered theaters on December 11, 1992 and has remained a beloved classic for over 20 years. Putting a Muppet twist on Charles Dickens’ classic story, The Muppet Christmas Carol was the first Muppet feature film made without Jim Henson and Richard Hunt and also the feature directorial debut for Brian Henson. Stand out performances come from Michael Caine as Scrooge, Steve Whitmire in his first major role as Kermit the Frog, and Jerry Nelson as Robin the Frog and The Ghost of Christmas Present. Songs for the film were written by Paul Williams and include wonderful tunes such as “One More Sleep ‘Til Christmas,” “It Feels Like Christmas,” and “Bless Us All.”
