On May 3rd, The Mahoning Drive-In Theater, in association with THE BARRETTA BROTHERS VODCAST/PODCAST, is proud to present MUPPETS TAKE MAHONING 3! A double feature of fleece, foam, and fandom with The Muppets on 35mm!
This year we're bringing you more Muppet vendors with even more rare treasures!
In just one evening, you can take a trip to the Big Apple to see a Broadway show and ride the high seas on the Hispaniola with Long John Silver!
SPECIAL GUEST UPDATE:
Meet our special guest, Emmy-Winner Fred Buccholz: Technical and Special effects artist, character rigging designer, and puppet stunt coordinator on countless Henson/Muppet/Sesame projects, including our double-feature.
Bring your questions for our live Q&A and find out what it was like working alongside Jim Henson, Miss Piggy, and so many others. He will also bring along some cool movie props and behind the scenes photos!
Here he is on the sets of Muppet Treasure Island with Director Brian Henson and Muppet Vision 3D with Director Jim Henson.
Join us for Muppet-themed vendors (that's us!), Muppet-theme Snacks and Merch, special event poster and tee shirt, video introductions by cast and crew members, a Muppet DJ set, a Muppet sing-along at intermission, Muppet raffle, Photo Ops, and books by Gene Barretta on sale!
Plus a costume contest and puppet contest that put YOU in the spotlight hosted by TJ McGlinchey - before sundown! (sign-ups coming soon!)
We open with THE MUPPETS TAKE MANHATTAN, directed by Frank Oz. The third film of the original Muppet film trilogy.
We follow the Muppets as they take their theatrical production of Manhattan Melodies to New York City with their hearts set on a Broadway premiere! What are the chances, after a cranky Kermit causes the gang to go their separate ways? Will they be Together Again? Come and see! The Muppets Take Manhattan also features more 80’s celebrities than a full season of Hollywood Squares.
Followed by MUPPET TREASURE ISLAND, directed by Brian Henson.
We are convinced. If Robert Louis Stevenson had written his classic tale in the 1990s, this is what he would have wanted! With Tim Curry and Kevin Bishop in mind for the lead roles! Hop on the Hispaniola and sail with us, sing with us, and laugh with us. Follow your favorite Muppets, along with several new characters, as they reinterpret this classic treasure hunt that is equally silly and touching.
OFFICIAL POSTER BY GENE BARRETTA:
Above is the official event poster by Gene Baretta which will be for sale exclusively at the show.
Gates Open at 6pm. Showtime at Sundown!
General Ticket: $12 (per person) - General+Extended Pass: $22 (per person)
