Halloween with The Muppet Show

Location: Redstone Theater
Part of Jim Henson's World
Introduced by Craig Shemin, President of The Jim Henson Legacy
As we approach Halloween, we’ve selected three season-appropriate episodes of The Muppet Show. The screening begins with a tribute to the late Alan Arkin with his season four appearance. In it, Arkin accidentally ingests Dr. Bunsen Honeydew’s “Jekyll-Hyde” formula and finds himself transformed into a vicious bunny-throwing beast. Next, legendary supermodel and actress Twiggy finds herself among those terrorized by the Phantom of The Muppet Show (Uncle Deadly). Finally, it isn’t a Muppet Halloween without Vincent Price, who brings his distinguished, albeit eerie, personality to The Muppet Theater for some frightful fun.
The Muppet Show episodes are screened courtesy of Muppets Studio and The Walt Disney Company
