The Muppet Show Live

During the 2001 MuppetFest celebration, The Muppet Show Live was staged at the Hollywood Palace in Hollywood, California.

Written by Craig Shemin and Jim Lewis, with stage direction by Bill Barretta, the program was a collection of onstage performances and classic Muppet Show clips projected on a large screen.

Guest stars included Jon Voight, Brooke Shields, and Paul Williams. Lionel Richie was scheduled to appear in the show, singing "Say You, Say Me" immediately after "Bein' Green", but Richie was unable to attend the show because of illness.
