Bret McKenzie of Flight of the Conchords will write the script and music for a new adaptation of Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas, based on the Jim Henson Company’s TV special of the same name which originally aired on television in 1977.
The original Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas TV special was based on the book of the same name by author Russell Hoban.
With McKenzie involved, this new version of Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas seems to be in good hands.
Mixing all of this experience with his own musical abilities and creative talent, it’s only natural for McKenzie to play such a prominent role in bringing to life a new version of Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas.
