Fans of the classic Tim Burton movie Beetlejuicelikely remember that the mischief really gets going when Beetlejuice025 ArchivesDepressed Teen All Star Lydia team up together to reclaim her house and deliver scares.
In the new musical version, which opened in April and was nominated for eight Tonys, including Best New Musical last month, the exciting moment provides an opportunity for a big stage moment in the number "Beautiful Sound," full of moving pieces, color, and, um, tons of Beetlejuice clones?!
“'Beautiful Sound' is also one of our biggest instances of real dance in the show and features a vocabulary that is an extension of Beetlejuice’s spirit," choreographer Connor Gallagher told Mashable via email. "Like Beetlejuice himself, the goal was to make it feel joyous, dangerous, and chaotic. The clones twist, flip, dive, and jump on nearly every inch of the house until they’re missing limbs, and they drop to the floor with celebratory exhaustion. These are characters who will stop at nothing to entertain each other and to have a good time."
As you can see below in the Mashable exclusive video starring Alex Brightman and Sophia Anne Caruso, a good time is indeed had.
Director Alex Timbers (Peter and the Starcatcher) is known for his memorable and creative style. Mash that up with Brightman's high energy and can't-take-your-eyes-off-him charisma, and it's no surprise the musical carves out its own place outside of the famed movie and cartoon -- though of course fans of both will be delighted.

"They’re having a blast together scaring the daylights out of people and the “beautiful sound” they’re talking about is the sound of making people scream. The playful, conspiratorial relationship you see reflected here is also our tip of the hat to the Lydia-Beetlejuice dynamic from the cartoon, where they act as true friends and foils."
Beetlejuice, withmusic & lyrics by Eddie Perfect and book by Scott Brown and Anthony King, is now playing at the Winter Garden Theatre. The cast album is now available via Ghostlight Records.
