It's showtime, folks! The ghost-with-the-most makes his Broadway return in this edgy and irreverent musical comedy based on Tim Burton's dearly beloved film. BEETLEJUICE tells the story of Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager whose life changes when she meets a recently deceased couple and Beetlejuice, a demon with a thing for stripes. When Lydia calls on Beetlejuice to scare away anyone with a pulse, this double-crossing specter unleashes a (Nether)world of pandemonium, and the biggest sandworm Broadway has ever seen.
Standby Andrew Kober commands the stage with winking brashness as the title character, which he plays on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays (otherwise played by Justin Collette). Isabella Esler’s performance as Lydia is poignant and potent. Will Burton is a delightful Adam and Britney Coleman a wonderful partner as Barbara. Other memorable performers include Jesse Sharp as Charles, Kate Marilley as Delia, Abe Goldfarb as Otho, Jackera Davis as Girl Scout, and Danielle Marie Gonzalez as Miss Argentina.
"Beetlejuice at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Center was a dazzling spectacle of comedy, music, and stellar performances that left a lasting impression. The show skillfully captured the essence of the legendary film while translating it into a unique and engaging theatrical experience. With standout performances by Justin Collette and Madison Mosley, combined with impeccable comedic timing, striking visuals, and a talented ensemble that thrived on stage, this musical was a perfect blend of humor and heart."
