Say it three times!
Howard T. Herber Middle School held three performances of the “Beetlejuice Jr.” on Jan. 9 and 10.
Based on the movie turned Broadway phenomenon “Beetlejuice,” this production brings the frightfully funny musical to the stage.
“Beetlejuice Jr.” follows the story of Lydia Deetz, played by Annabella Sanchez, an unusual teenager grieving the loss of her mother and obsessed with the dead. When she and her father move to a new house, Deetz is excited to discover the place is haunted by a recently deceased couple Adam and Barbara Maitland, played by James Leupp and Aurora Montalvo, as well as the delightful demon Beetlejuice, played by Aidan Crowley.
Chaos ensues as Beetlejuice unleashes a ‘Nether’- world of pandemonium around the haunted house.
The production included the performance of various songs adapted from the Tony-nominated musical, such as “The Whole Being Dead Thing,” “Dead Mom,” “Say My Name,” and more.
