Description
The ghost-with-the-most crashes onto the stage in Beetlejuice Jr., a frightfully funny musical based on the iconic film and Broadway hit – specially adapted for young performers and family audiences.
Lydia Deetz is strange. Unusual. And navigating life after the loss of her mother. When she and her dad move into a new house, she discovers it’s already occupied by a recently deceased couple… and Beetlejuice, a mischievous demon with a chaotic love of life. What starts as a plan to scare away the living quickly spins into a whirlwind of Netherworld antics, big laughs, and surprising heart.
This Jr. version keeps the humor, heart, and edge that made the Broadway show a sensation, while shaping the story into an age-appropriate, high-energy theatrical experience perfect for teens and families. It’s weird in the best way, a little spooky, and a lot of fun.
