Beetlejuice The Musical Tickets
He’s trading the underworld for the West End stage! The hit Broadway musical Beetlejuice arrives at the Prince Edward Theatre in May 2026. Packed with outrageous fun, jaw-dropping effects and a killer score, this larger-than-life production brings Tim Burton’s beloved film to London in spectacular style. Don’t miss your chance to grab Beetlejuice the Musical tickets and say his name three times for a night you’ll never forget.
About Beetlejuice
Beetlejuice the Musical tells the story of Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teen who finds herself haunted by a recently deceased couple — and one loudmouthed demon who just won’t stay buried. With wicked humour, gothic charm and show-stopping songs, this twisted tale of life, death, and what comes after is a frightfully good time.
Arriving in London after multiple Broadway runs and U.S. national tours, it’s the perfect blend of comedy, chaos and your fave undead characters.
Nominated for 8 Tony Awards, including Best Musical and Best Original Score
Based on Tim Burton’s 1988 cult classic film
Features a score by Eddie Perfect and book by Scott Brown and Anthony King
The West End premiere is scheduled at the Prince Edward Theatre (Old Compton Street, London) in 2026.
It is expected to run from May 2026 to April 2027 (booking period).
On Broadway the show ran about 2 hours 30 minutes; the West End version’s exact running time is yet to be confirmed.
London Theatre
On Broadway it was nominated for eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical and Best Actor in a Leading Role for the original Beetlejuice, Alex Brightman.

The style of the show mixes dark comedy, horror-elements, extravagant set and costume design: expect lots of visual spectacle, comic timing, and spooky fun.
The stage show adapts many of the film’s iconic moments (like the “Afterlife” bureaucracy, chaotic house hauntings) but with musical numbers and theatrical flair.
What to Expect
Because this is a “from Broadway to West End” transfer, many of the production values will be high-end: elaborate sets, lighting effects, maybe pyrotechnics or quick changes.
If you’re going, consider booking in advance because West End shows (especially a big name like this) tend to fill up.
Seating: Since the Prince Edward Theatre is fairly large (capacity ~1,700 +) expect some seats further from the stage; if you prefer a better view, aim for stalls or front of the dress circle if budget allows.
Because of the horror-comedy nature, if you’re bringing younger children: check whether there are any age recommendations or content advisories (some sections may be spooky or fast‐paced).
For fans of the film: look out for Easter eggs or moments adapted from the movie — that can make the theatre experience even more fun.
