Broadway in Detroit is kicking off their 2025-2026 theatrical season with a bang, with Beetlejuice the Musical at the Fisher Theatre! While serving as a stage adaptation of the cult classic Tim Burton film, this musical highlights and enhances what makes the movie special! As one of our favorite shows to have recently toured here in Michigan, we were excited to continue our conversation about the incredible work the cast and crew are putting into this musical!

In this episode of the Box Seat Babes podcast, hosts Brian Kitson and RJ Miller-Zelinko break down the music and stagecraft of the touring production of this stage show! From classic songs, such as “Dead Mom” that everyone knows, to catchy tunes like “Say My Name” and “The Whole Being Dead Thing,” this musical has it all! Which song spoke to each of the hosts the most? Whose vocal performance blew their socks off? From costumes to lighting, and set design to puppetry, the Box Seat Babes have much to discuss from the funniest show this side of the Netherworld!
