All right, Motor City . . . it’s SHOWTIME.

That’s right, all you creatures among the living: Broadway’s dearly beloved musical, Beetlejuice, has checked in to the Detroit Opera House! Based on Tim Burton’s 1988 cult classic film, Beetlejuice tells the story of Lydia Deetz, an 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.

Beetlejuice opened on Broadway in 2019 and won the Drama Desk Award and Outer Critics Circle Award for scenic design. The show was nominated for eight Tony Awards including Best New Musical, and achieved a history-making run on Broadway. The smash hit musical played 366 performances at the Winter Garden Theatre on Broadway before being shuttered with the rest of Broadway on March 12, 2020. Beetlejuice returned to Broadway on April 8, 2022 at the Marquis Theatre, and continued its Broadway engagement until January 8, 2023.

Beetlejuice is directed by Tony Award winner Alex Timbers, with an original score by Tony Award nominee Eddie Perfect and book by Tony Award nominee Scott Brown and Tony and Emmy Award nominee Anthony King. Music supervision, orchestrations, and incidental music are by Kris Kukul, and choreography is by Connor Gallagher.
