Kindling Holiday Special - Muppets 2024 (1920 x 1080 px).png
Kindling's Very Special Holiday Special
featuring The Muppet Christmas Carol


Thursday-Saturday, December 19-21 at 7:30pm

Darkhorse Theatre (4610 Charlotte Ave)​​​

​

Back by popular demand! Kindling‘s Very Special Holiday Special, a cherished annual tradition, will once again feature an unforgettable screening of the cult classic The Muppet Christmas Carol alongside live performances from some of Nashville’s most exciting talent. In addition to all the Muppet fun, writing duo Daniel Carter (Bar Fight) and Emma Supica (East Nashville Facebook Page: The Musical) have once again teamed up with Kindling's own Jessika Malone to bring you an evening of hilarity, community, and holiday cheer. The evening will include some of our most beloved local actors paying homage to our favorite Muppets, including performances by Emma Supica (embodying the singular Gonzo the Great), Joe Mobley (inspired by Rizzo the Rat), Seth Nathan Green (Nashville's very own loveable Kermit), and special surprises by burlesque-theater superstar GrandmaFun, brilliant dancer Jasmine Clark, and a variety of roles filled by the comical Will Henke.

 

Take a breather from the holiday madness to enjoy this hilarious and heartwarming evening, including the nostalgic journey of Scrooge’s hauntings with grand Muppet musical numbers. It's true: wherever you find love, it feels like Christmas!

​

Please note: this event is 21+. The Muppets are for everyone, but this Holiday Special is for the adults.
