Beetlejuice Jr.

$50

with Pamela Karpelenia

Calendar Aug 23, 2025 at 5:30 pm, runs for 12 weeks

Ages: 13 - 19

BlackBox Foundation is proud to present:

Beetlejuice Jr. (Ages 13-19)

It's our show now, kid. 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.
