About this show

Have the time of your afterlife with the ‘supernaturally fun, fun, fun’ (Radio Times) musical sensation BEETLEJUICE. Hailed as ‘hilarious’ (Independent) and an ‘absolute scream’ (The Standard), don’t miss the ‘drop-dead gorgeous’ (Guardian) Broadway spectacular at London’s Prince Edward Theatre – for a limited season only. Olivier nominee David Fynn (School of Rock) unleashes mayhem in a ‘sensational... unparalleled performance’ (Daily Express) as the iconic Beetlejuice in this ‘mercilessly entertaining celebration’ (Daily Mail) of Tim Burton’s beloved movie. Starring alongside him in an acclaimed cast is Hannah Nordberg (HBO’s Euphoria), giving a ‘dazzling West End debut’ (The Standard) as Lydia. Meet Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager sharing her home with a pair of newly-deads and the demonic ghost with the most, Beetlejuice. He's dead trouble, but if you really want to feel alive, just say his name three times... Hailed as a ‘hallucinogenic spectacle’ (The Telegraph) bursting with 'sets to die for' (Daily Express) and ‘songs that are a blast’ (Sunday Express), BEETLEJUICE is the outrageous, life-affirming hit with a big (cold) heart. See it and you’ll want to make the most of every Day-O! But act dead quick – BEETLEJUICE only appears in the West End for a limited run only. Possess your tickets now.

What the critics say

1/8
The Guardian (UK)
There are drop-dead gorgeous designs and the performances are full of life but this off-kilter escapade has scattershot gags and unmemorable songs.
Chris WiegandRead review
The Telegraph (UK)
Fresh from Broadway, the stage version of Tim Burton’s comedy-horror is full of swearing, smut and local in-jokes. It’s overkill
Dominic CavendishRead review
The London Evening Standard
Beetlejuice the musical is louche, macabre and pure, unadulterated fun, full of black-and-white grotesquerie, visual flair and near-the-knuckle jokes.
Nick CurtisRead review
WhatsOnStage
...the show is constantly an amusing ride, but never really flashes its teeth
Alex WoodRead review
The Stage (UK)
Musical based on Tim Burton's cult movie is tacky, draining, heartless and pointless
Sam MarloweRead review
The Arts Desk
I'm left voting "Miss" rather than "Hit", despite the best efforts of Ms Nordberg.
Gary NaylorRead review
London Theatre
It might be best to forget about the story and surrender to the hellish mayhem instead.
Anya RyanRead review
The Independent (UK)
When this show hits the mark, it’s hilarious. Atkinson is brilliantly kooky, satirising the very 21st-century phenomenon of life coaches trying to manifest their way to riches.
Alice SavilleRead review
