It's showtime! The ghost-with-the-most comes to the stage in Beetlejuice JR., the frightfully funny musical based on the beloved motion picture turned Broadway phenomenon.

Lydia Deetz is a strange and unusual teenager, still grieving the loss of her mother and obsessed with the whole “being dead thing.” Lucky for Lydia, she and her father move to a new house haunted by a recently deceased couple and Beetlejuice, a delightful demon with a real zest for life. When Lydia calls on Beetlejuice to scare away anyone with a pulse, this double-crossing specter shows his true stripes, unleashing a (Nether)world of pandemonium.

With music and lyrics by Tony Award-nominee Eddie Perfect and a book by Tony Award-nominated pair Anthony King and Scott Brown, Beetlejuice was nominated for eight 2019 Tony Awards including Best New Musical. A viral "sucks-yes" on social media, this musical struck a chord with young theatre lovers who adored its unabashed humor and emotional honesty.

Attending rehearsals is essential to the theatre process. We ask that each student turn in a conflict calendar prior to casting. We know that sometimes things can come up like unforeseen illness or emergencies, so we ask that families notify the directors if you must miss rehearsal. More than two unexcused absences, or students who neglect to regularly attend rehearsals may lead to reduced stage time or role reassignment.  Students must be available and may not miss tech week and performances (unless approved by the directors) as these dates are required. Please note that fees are non-refundable if you withdraw or are dismissed from the production.
