Welcome (back) to a show about death!

Appropriately, the irrepressible Beetlejuice gets resurrected for a third Broadway stint, starting today(-o). The viral sensation, which is bypassing a preview period, comes to New York as the conclusion of a profitable national tour. The cast includes Justin Collette as the titular ghost and Isabella Esler as Lydia Deetz; also featured are Megan McGinnis, Will Burton, Jenni Barber, Jesse Sharp, Patrick Oliver Jones, Travis Mitchell, Sharone Sayegh, Vanessa Aurora Sierra, and Emilia Tagliani. With a score by Eddie Perfect, a book by Scott Brown and Anthony King, choreography by Connor Gallagher, and direction by Alex Timbers, Beetlejuice runs until January 3 at the Palace Theatre.

“Based on Tim Burton’s dearly beloved film, this hilariously demented musical tells the story of Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager whose life changes when she meets a recently deceased couple and a demon with a thing for stripes.”

Who’s making their way back to the Netherworld?!

Also, it looks like Trisha Paytas is joining the NY run as Maxine Dean.

There's not really a point to have this on Broadway for the third time, I wish they'd move it to New World Stages and call it a day.

I saw this the first go round in previews at the Winter Garden and honestly found it to be the most grating and headache-inducing show I've ever sat through.

That being said, the show has a devout fanbase. Curious to see how this will fare on round 3 on Broadway.

As a limited run for spooky season in a very thin fall on Broadway, why not?

How was tonight???

Did they go back to the opening rhyme they used for the Marquis remount in “The Whole ‘Being Dead’ Thing”?

There's almost no buzz about this returning. Haven't read any reports on their reopening. Reddit is dead when mentioning the show's return. Curious to see their grosses over time.
