Perth gets a wicked dose of Beetlejuice the Musical

Beetlejuice the Musical is set to haunt Perth this August, bringing its wicked humour, eye-popping spectacle and otherworldly heart to the stage at Crown Theatre.

Based on the 1988 Tim Burton film Beetlejuice, the story follows Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager whose life is turned upside down when she discovers her new home is occupied by a pair of newly deads and a mischievous demon with a serious love of stripes. Chaos, comedy and the afterlife collide in a production that has become a global fan favourite.

Leading the charge is Broadway star Andy Karl as the ghost with the most, steering this eight-time Tony Award-nominated hit through a whirlwind of irreverent laughs, jaw-dropping design and a soundtrack crafted by Australian composer Eddie Perfect.

Big, brash and surprisingly heartfelt, Beetlejuice is a high-voltage celebration of family, love, and squeezing every drop out of the time you’ve got, this side of the veil or the other.

Beetlejuice the Musical hits Crown Theatre in August 2026. For more information and to buy tickets, visit crownperth.com
