Charles Dickens, as played by the Great Gonzo, tells the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, an old miser who refuses to enjoy the yuletide celebrations and who forces his employee, Bob Crachit - played by Kermit the Frog - to work on Christmas Eve. But when Scrooge goes to bed that night, he is visited by a series of spectres: the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future. It seems that Scrooge is in for a long night - and a journey into his own soul& <BR><BR> Michael Caine (<B>Ebenezer Scrooge</B>), Dave Goelz (<B>The Great Gonzo [as Charles Dickens], Waldorf [as Robert Marley], Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, Betina Crachit, additional characters [voice]</B>), Steve Whitmire (<B>Kermit the Frog [as Bob Crachit], Rizzo the Rat, Beaker, Bean Bunny, Belinda Crachit, Sprocket, additional characters [voice]</B>), Jerry Nelson (<B>Robin the Frog [as Tiny Tim], Statler [as Jacob Marley[, Ma Bear, Lew Zealand, Pops, Ghost of Christmas Present, additional characters [voice]</B>), Frank Oz (<B>Miss Piggy [as Emily Crachit], Fozzie Bear [as Fozziwig], Sam the Eagle, Animal, George the Janitor, Vegetable Peddler [voice]</B>), David Rudman (<B>Swedish Chef, Peter Crachit, Old Joe [performer]</B>), Louise Gold (<B>Mrs. Dilber [voice]</B>), Mike Quinn (<B>Muppet Performer</B>), Robert Tygner (<B>Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come / Ghost of Christmas Past</B>), Karen Prell (<B>Ghost of Christmas Past [performer]</B>), William Todd Jones (<B>Ghost of Christmas Past / Additional Muppet Performer</B>), Donald Austen (<B>Ghost of Christmas Present / Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come</B>), Jessica Fox (<B>Ghost of Christmas Past [voice]</B>), Steven Mackintosh (<B>Fred</B>), Meredith Braun (<B>Belle</B>), Robin Weaver (<B>Clara</B>), Raymond Coulthard, Russell Martin, Theo Sanders, Kristopher Milnes, Edward Sanders (<B>all as Young Scrooge</B>), Anthony Hamblin (<B>Boy #1</B>), Fergus Brazier (<B>Boy #2</B>), David Shaw Parker (<B>Old Joe [voice]</B>), Reginald Turner (<B>Mr. Caine's Double</B>), Marcus Clarke (<B>Puppeteer</B>), David Alan Barclay (<B>Additional Muppet Performer [as David Barclay]</B>), Robbie Barnett, Sue Dacre, Geoff Felix, Nigel Plaskitt, Simon Williamson (<B>Additional Muppet Performers</B>), Timothy M.
