Movies on the Green: The Muppets

Who wants to sit in a stuffy movie theater during the summer when you can enjoy a fun night of cinema outdoors! Bring a blanket or low back chair and sit under the stars to enjoy a family friendly movie on the Wyman Green. Popcorn and snacks are available for purchase. Movies begin at dusk.

Movies on the Green are brought to you by Glencoe Chamber of Commerce, Glencoe Park District, Glencoe Public Library, Glencoe Youth Services, and the Village of Glencoe. All proceeds benefit Glencoe Youth Services.

NOTE: In case of inclement weather, movies will be shown in Village Hall in the 3rd floor Council Chamber.

The Muppets - On vacation in Los Angeles, Walter, the world’s biggest Muppet fan, and his friends Gary and Mary from Smalltown, USA, discover the nefarious plan of oilman Tex Richman to raze the Muppet Theater and drill for the oil recently discovered beneath the Muppets’ former stomping grounds. To stage The Greatest Muppet Telethon Ever and raise the $10 million needed to save the theater, Walter, Mary, and Gary help Kermit reunite the Muppets, who have all gone their separate ways: Fozzie now performs with a Reno casino tribute band called the Moopets, Miss Piggy is a plus-size fashion editor at Vogue Paris, Animal is in a Santa Barbara clinic for anger management, and Gonzo is a high-powered plumbing magnate.
