Beetlejuice

at Prince Edward Theatre

About the show

After a married couple die and become ghosts in their own home, a mischievous afterlife 'bio-exorcist' called Beetlejuice helps them to scare away their living replacements.

Based on Tim Burton's 1988 film, it is a macabre, fast-moving comedy with a big dose of audience interaction.
