A VHS CHRISTMAS CAROL
An Original Musical by Team Starkid
“The only thing grainier than Scrooge's soul... is the video quality.”
It's 1989. Your bangs are high, your tape deck is loaded, and Charles Dickens just got totally radicalized.
This holiday season, Star of the Day rewinds the clock and presses play on a scrambled, synthy, side-splitting musical remix of the classic Christmas ghost story — shot entirely on VHS and dubbed over someone’s Saved by the Bell recording.
Three ghosts. One cranky dude. Unlimited fog machine.
Featuring soon-to-be-classics like:
“Back to the Past (In Acid Wash Jeans)”
“Ghosted Again (Scrooge’s Lament)”
“Spirit of the Season, But Make It Analog” And the haunting ballad: “God Bless Us, Everyone (But Especially Me)”

Expect:
Over-the-top characters
Meta jokes about VCR tracking
A dance battle with Death
Tiny Tim with a keytar
And a surprise cameo from Santa Claus… who might be a time traveler?

Limited engagement — because tapes wear out, baby.
