How Can I Watch Beetlejuice The Musical
Okay, let's be real. You want to see Beetlejuice. The musical, that is. Not just watch the movie for the millionth time (though, let's be honest, that's tempting too). So, how does one actually witness this spectacle of stripes and sandworms?
Is it even *possible* to watch Beetlejuice the musical?
That's the million-dollar question, isn't it? Sadly, your days of strutting into the Winter Garden Theatre are OVER. The original Broadway production? Closed shop in January 2023.
But don't despair, my delightfully demented darlings! There's still hope. The show's spirit lives on, even if you can't snag a seat on the Great White Way.
Option 1: Tour de Beetlejuice!
The national tour is your best bet. Check the official Beetlejuice website. They have tour dates listed.
It's a chance to see the show live! Just brace yourself for potentially traveling. And *possibly* exorbitant ticket prices.
Option 2: The Bootleg Brigade
Alright, let's whisper about this one. Bootlegs. They exist. But finding a *good* one is like finding a decent parking spot in Manhattan. Rare.
I'm not *recommending* this, of course. It's technically illegal. And the quality can be... questionable. Think shaky camera work and muffled audio. But desperate times, right?
Option 3: Waiting for the inevitable Pro-Shot
Here's where my (possibly unpopular) opinion comes in. We NEED a pro-shot of Beetlejuice. Like, yesterday. Seriously, what are we waiting for?
Think about it: Hamilton, Newsies, even Come From Away. They're all immortalized on film. Why not the ghost with the most?
I'm convinced it's only a matter of time. Maybe if we all collectively manifest it hard enough? Start tweeting at Warner Bros. and whoever owns the rights!
Option 4: YouTube Rabbit Hole
Okay, this isn't *watching* the whole show. But YouTube is a treasure trove. There are clips, songs, and behind-the-scenes footage galore.
You can get your Beetlejuice fix in bite-sized pieces. It's not the same as seeing it live, obviously. But hey, it's free and instantly accessible!
Option 5: Relive the Soundtrack
The Beetlejuice musical soundtrack slaps. Hard. Seriously, crank it up. Learn the lyrics. Perform your own one-person show in your living room.
Bonus points if you wear black and white stripes. Just be careful not to scare the cat.
Option 6: Fan Creations
The Beetlejuice fandom is strong. Really strong. And they are talented! Check out fan art, fan fiction, and even fan-made animations.
You might be surprised by the creativity out there. It's a great way to appreciate the show in a different light. It keeps the spirit alive.
So, there you have it. A few ways to scratch that Beetlejuice itch. Until that glorious pro-shot arrives (manifesting intensifies!), we gotta make do. Good luck in your quest to see the show. And remember: "Day-O!"
