It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie
An inspirational, celebrational Muppets Christmas!
Directed by Kirk R. Thatcher
Produced by The Jim Henson Company, NBC Studios
A heartwarming, comedic Christmas special where the Muppets band together to save their beloved theatre through sacrifice and teamwork, suffused with holiday warmth and playful charm.
The owner of a bank (Miss Bitterman) wants to own the Muppet Theatre so she can build a nightclub over it. After she tricks Pepe into giving her the only copy of the contract between her father and the Muppets, she changes it so the Muppets have very little time to pay a debt they owe. Meanwhile, the Muppets are trying to put on a Christmas show. After the Muppets are confronted by Bitterman, they make a lot of sacrifices to save up so they can keep the Theatre.
