BREAKDOWN
Beetlejuice, a malevolent spirit masquerading as a guide to the Netherworld meets the Maitlands, a recently deceased couple learning the ropes of haunting their own home. But when angst-ridden Lydia Deetz moves into the Maitland house with her family, Beetlejuice launches a havoc-wrecking quest that forces the Maitlands to confront what it means to be fully dead and Lydia to confront what it means to be fully alive.
All roles have been CAST. Seeking for possible replacements if needed
[BEETLEJUICE] ageless, somewhere between 12 and 12,000, maturity-wise. The life of the party and the deadest guy in the room; Beetlejuice is more than a little ADD and free-associative; a handsy, horny motormouth who overshares and disregards all notions of personal space. Strategic and cagy and wildly dangerous. Excellent singer. Any ethnicity. Bold, physical, comedic actor. ROLE IS CAST
[LYDIA] 14-18, Dark, smart and moody, with a jet black sense of humor and a streak of anarchy, Lydia's a step ahead of almost everyone she meets, living or dead, but she's at the mercy of a mania, just like Beetlejuice. Lydia wants life to mean something. The world seems small to Lydia since her mother died; she longs for it to reveal itself as something more fantastical than it is. Great rock belt/mix voice. Dry, comic actor. ROLE IS CAST
[BARBARA] mid to late 30s, is a mouse that didn't roar. Which doesn't mean she can't. Sweetly neurotic, devoted to her carefully-curated house and her careful curator of a house-husband, Barbara is positive, affirming, and unfailingly kind. She and Adam strenuously protect each other while inadvertently holding each other back. Barbara has a fierce heart and a heroic mother-bear instinct. A deft, subtle comic actress, disarmingly honest. Any ethnicity. Great Pop/Musical Theater voice with a strong mix. ROLE IS CAST
[ADAM] mid 30s, Adam is one of those “nice guys” who only have two problems: Can’t seem to get anything started, can’t seem to get anything finished. A putterer-craftsman, Adam adores his wife Barbara and the cozy, cloistered, slightly claustrophobic, conspicuously childless life they’ve built together. What Adam doesn’t realize is: That fastidiously unfinished life of his is nearly finished. Any ethnicity. Great singer. ROLE IS CAST
[CHARLES] late 40s/early 50s, is a mini-mogul who needs to control life's chaos to feel safe. And yet, not far beneath his diamond-hard surface, he feels constantly out of control. Charles is a master-class in blustery overcompensation and strict compartmentalization. Any ethnicity. Actor who sings. ROLE IS CAST
[DELIA] 30s-40s, ditzy yet ambitious, Delia is unfailingly positive, unfailingly clueless, and always looking for a silver lining, even when nobody’s asking for one. She’s never faced anyone as smart and cutting as Lydia before. Any ethnicity. Excellent singer with a strong pop/belt/mix. ROLE IS CAST
