Belle's husband and children aren't shown in this version and her future is unknown the real Scrooge instead has his Heel Realization in the middle of the scene, turning "That Scrooge" into a double- Counterpoint Duet between himself and Christmas Past along with Young Scrooge and Belle.The original novella gave the Cratchit family six children as is common with adaptations, this version removes the two unnamed younger kids and makes Tiny Tim the youngest.Adapted Out: Tons of things, obviously, since this is only a 45-minute show, but notably this is one of the adaptations that just deletes Ignorance and Want from the Christmas Present sequence.'80s Hair: A lot of glorious examples throughout, most notably Belle's huge mane of Jheri curls, and Christmas Present and Fred both rocking classic hi-top fades, along with Joey Richter actually growing out his signature shoulder-length locks and Porn Stache for this show.The '80s: The whole thing is a tribute to '80s Synth-Pop, '80s Hair and '80s fashion, especially to the cheesy '80s fad of Green Screen Music Videos against blatantly fake backgrounds.This version was posted to Youtube on November 25, 2022, to promote the Starkid Holiday Jangle Ball Tour, which would also feature the concert rendition. Curt Mega and Kim Whalen served as understudies. Janaya Mahealani Jones replaced Britney Coleman as Belle and Lauren Lopez took over two of Ali Gordon's ensemble parts, with Ali making a Console Cameo as Turkey Boy via prerecorded video. VHS Christmas Carol: Live!, an immersive live concert staging of the musical with added and lightly-revised material, played The Bourbon Room in Los Angeles, CA, from December 9-11, 2021, which was available for live, livestream, and digital viewing for a limited time.

It's also a bit of a Reunion Show for Team Starkid, bringing back a bunch of actors from Starkid's "first generation" who appeared in A Very Potter Musical (along with a few others), who hadn't appeared in a Starkid show since the beginning of the Hatchetfield series when Starkid moved to LA in 2018.Ī VHS Christmas Carol was broadcast for four livestreamed performances on the weekend of Dec. It's a Surreal Music Video adaptation of the classic Charles Dickens novella A Christmas Carol as a Concept Album from The '80s, with the actors (almost none of whom are physically in the same space) superimposed on various digital backgrounds in order to tell the story.

A VHS Christmas Carol is a short (45-minute) Web Video project created by Team Starkid for the 2020 holiday season during the COVID-19 Pandemic, as an experiment to see if they could do a fully produced musical project via Green Screen.
