Eight-time Tony Award-nominated hit musical BEETLEJUICE THE MUSICAL will conclude its national tour in Sydney. BEETLEJUICE THE MUSICAL will play the Capitol Theatre, Sydney, from November 2026, with tickets on sale this Thursday 7 May.

BEETLEJUICE THE MUSICAL features music and lyrics by Australia's own Eddie Perfect which earned him a Tony Award nomination.

Speaking about the Sydney season, Eddie Perfect said, “Sydney is a city that embraces big ideas and bold theatrical experiences. Beetlejuice is unapologetically outrageous, packed with heart, spectacle, and a healthy dose of anarchic comedy, and I know Sydney audiences will fall in love with this gloriously twisted world.”

Reprising his role as Beetlejuice, Broadway star Andy Karl said, “Getting to step into the black-and-white striped suit is always a thrill, and I'm so excited to finally do it for Sydney audiences. Knowing this city will be the final stop on our Australian tour makes it even more special. This show will bring the laughter, the music and just the right amount of mayhem to one of the world's great theatre cities”

BEETLEJUICE THE MUSICAL tells the story of Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager obsessed with the whole “being dead thing.” Lucky for Lydia, her new house is haunted by a recently deceased couple and a degenerate demon with a thing for stripes. When Lydia calls on this ghost-with-the-most to scare away her insufferable parents, Beetlejuice comes up with the perfect plan, which involves exorcism, an adorable girl scout who gets scared out of her wits and a whole (nether)world of pandemonium.

Producer Michael Cassel said, “Wild, wicked and gloriously unexpected, Beetlejuice is coming to Sydney for what promises to be an unforgettable finale to our national tour. This is a bold, high‑octane production led by an extraordinary company. Audiences are in for one hell of a night at the theatre.”

BEETLEJUICE THE MUSICAL is directed by two-time Tony Award-winner Alex Timbers (Moulin Rouge!, original Broadway production of Peter and the Starcatcher), with an original score by Tony Award-nominee Eddie Perfect (King Kong), a book by Scott Brown & Emmy Award nominee Anthony King (Broad City), choreography by Connor Gallagher (The Robber Bridegroom), and music supervision, orchestrations and incidental music by Kris Kukul (Joan of Arc: Into the Fire).

BEETLEJUICE THE MUSICAL features scenic design by two-time Tony Award nominee David Korins (Hamilton), costume design by six-time Tony Award winner William Ivey Long (The Producers), lighting design by Tony Award winner Kenneth Posner (Kinky Boots), sound design by four-time Tony Award nominee Peter Hylenski (Frozen), projection design by Drama Desk Award winner Peter Nigrini (Dear Evan Hansen), puppet design by Drama Desk Award winner Michael Curry (The Lion King), special effects design by Jeremy Chernick (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child), illusions by Michael Weber (Forrest Gump), hair and wig design by Charles G. LaPointe (Hamilton), make-up design by Joe Dulude II (Wicked), dance arrangements by David Dabbon and music producing by Matt Stine .

BEETLEJUICE THE MUSICAL is based on the 1988 Academy Award-winning Geffen Company motion picture with story by Michael McDowell and Larry Wilson. The smash-hit comedy was directed by Tim Burton .
