The Muppet Script returned with THE MUPPET SCRIPTMAS CAROL, a live celebration of the written word behind one of the Muppets’ most beloved films. While the Muppets are often remembered for their colorful fleece-and-foam characters, this event put the spotlight where it all began: on the page. Before appearing on screen, the Muppets first returned to the writers’ room, where scribe Jerry Juhl drew inspiration from Charles Dickens’ classic holiday tale, transporting the gang to merry old London in the 1800s. The film marked the Muppets’ first without creator Jim Henson and was directed by his son, Brian Henson, and featured the return of Paul Williams, whose songs helped create a soundtrack as timeless as Dickens’ original novel.
The performance raised funds for One Simple Wish, an organization dedicated to amplifying the voices of individuals impacted by foster care and crisis through meaningful, often simple wishes. Support from the evening helped One Simple Wish continue its work with over 2,000 social service agencies and nonprofits across the United States, ensuring that everyone feels seen, heard, and loved.

We kicked off the holiday at Dynasty with Jon Gabrus’ 11th Annual High & Mighty Thanksgiving Eve Power Hour, a yearly event where six friends take sixty shots of beer in sixty minutes.
Gabrus was joined by Nick Wiger, Gilli Nissim, Oscar Montoya, Ify Nwadiwe, and Betsy Sodaro. The group started strong, got progressively sillier as the timer moved along, and kept the crowd engaged the whole way through.
Some people in the audience played along, while others just watched the chaos unfold. The livestream added another layer of participation with viewers commenting and reacting in real time.
By the end, it was a fun, loose, and lively way to start the Thanksgiving break. Thanks to everyone who came out or tuned in.
