December 10: Family Movie & Pizza Night

Thomaston, Maine - It's Thomaston Public Library's first anniversary of Family Movie & Pizza Night, and we're celebrating with the holiday classic, The Muppet Christmas Carol! Join us at 5 pm for this wonderful film and great pizza. Free and open to all, and pajamas welcome!

In this adaptation of the timeless story, narrated by Gonzo as Charles Dickens (assisted by Rizzo the Rat), it is Christmas Eve in 19th Century London. The merriment is not shared by Ebenezer Scrooge (Michael Caine), a surly money-lender who is more interested in profit than celebration. He is so cold to the season of giving that his book-keeping staff, including loyal employee Bob Cratchit (Kermit the Frog), has to plead with him just to have the day off work during Christmas by pointing out that Scrooge would have no customers on the holiday and it would be a waste of coal to sit alone in the office. Will visits from the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come show him the error of his dastardly, miserly ways?

Don't miss all your Muppet favorites, including Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker, Bean Bunny, and more in this heartwarming and favorite retelling of the classic Christmas Carol from Walt Disney Pictures and Jim Henson Productions.

The film will be shown with closed captions for the deaf and hard of hearing.
