With the health and safety of our audiences, artists and staff as our top priority, New 42 regrets to announce that all remaining performances of Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas are now canceled.
Treasure a new holiday tradition with Jim Henson’s Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas! Based on Jim Henson’s beloved television special, this tuneful tale takes us to Frogtown Hollow where Ma and Emmet Otter risk what little they have to make each other’s holiday dreams come true. Featuring a lovable cast of performers with puppets from Jim Henson’s Creature Shop, and a toe-tapping score by legendary songwriter Paul Williams, this very merry musical will warm the hearts of a new generation for winters to come!
To provide the safest possible experience, we cannot accommodate kids under 4 at the theater at this time.
The Jim Henson Company has remained an established leader in family entertainment for over 60 years and is recognized worldwide as an innovator in puppetry, animatronics and digital animation. Best known as creators of the world-famous Muppets, Henson has received over 50 Emmy Awards and 9 Grammy Awards.
The mission of iTheatrics is to ensure that young people everywhere have access to quality musical theater programs. iTheatrics develops new musicals for family audiences, produces the annual Junior Theatre Festival, and adapts Broadway musicals for performance by elementary, middle and high school students.
