The proceeds will help fund their projects, which includes local scholarships.With the help of three fans, the gang must reunite to save their old theater from a greedy oil tycoon. The theater used to be as a thriving entertainment factory, but now resembles a creepy, abandoned museum. Itching to buy the place, tear it down and drill for oil is tycoon, Tex Richman, played by Chris Cooper. They put together the old Mickey- and -Judy thing by putting together a show to raise the $10 million needed to buy the studio and save it. Kermit, whom they discover in a Bel Air mansion, leads the roundup. They gather the others from their troupe, Foozie Bear, Animal, Gonzo and of course, Miss Piggie. Come this week-end and see their show. $1.00 off coupons are available at the stores, banks, and restaurants. Coupons may be printed at: www.lantextheater.com. Another episode of the serial, Riders of Death Valley, will be showing before the movie starts. We will have popcorn, sodas, candy, and pickles available. See you this week-end at the Lantex.
