Looking for a night filled with humor, music, and a bit of spooky fun? The critically acclaimed Beetlejuice musical is back at the Durham Performing Arts Center (DPAC), and it’s a show you won’t want to miss. Combining laugh-out-loud comedy, electrifying music, and a heartfelt story, it’s the perfect choice for fans of all ages.

Karen Clark recently sat down with Will Burton, who stars as Adam in the production, to discuss what makes this musical such a crowd-pleaser. Burton enthused about the experience, describing it as “hands down” one of the most fun projects of his career. His character, Adam, forms half of the ghostly couple determined to reclaim their home from its new occupants, leading to a series of hilariously spooky antics.

For those unfamiliar with the story, the musical is adapted from Tim Burton’s 1988 cult-classic film. And just like the movie, it’s packed with quirky charm. But it’s the show’s fresh take, highlighted by its dynamic score, that really sets it apart. Filled with rock and pop hits, the music has fans singing along from start to finish. Burton even called it “like a rock show,” making it an ideal introduction for those who might shy away from traditional musicals.

Adding to the fun is Justin Collette, who plays Beetlejuice. A master of improv, Collette’s unpredictable and high-energy performance keeps his fellow cast members and the audience on their toes.

What’s more, the production is perfect for families and newcomers alike. Whether you grew up loving Beetlejuice or are sharing it with your kids for the first time, it’s sure to deliver an unforgettable evening. Karen Clark described it as “so silly, so funny… you’ll definitely enjoy it.”

The Beetlejuice musical runs at DPAC through March 23rd, so get your tickets now for a night of hilarity and fun. Trust us, it’s showtime!
