Beetlejuice The Musical coming to Singapore January 2026, tickets available from July
Based on the iconic Tim Burton movie starring Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder, the musical will feature three-time Tony nominee Andy Karl as Beetlejuice.
The audience can expect to marvel at hauntingly beautiful costumes as well as special effects that transform the stage into the netherworld.
The musical will be staged by Michael Cassel Group, which previously brought productions of Hamilton and The Lion King to Singapore.
In a statement, CEO Michael Cassel said: 'We've had the privilege of producing some of the biggest titles in musical theatre, and Beetlejuice The Musical is undoubtedly one of the most original, exhilarating productions of the last decade.
"It's wickedly funny, visually spectacular, and with Andy Karl donning the iconic suit, it's going to be an unmissable performance for Singapore audiences.'

Tickets for Beetlejuice The Musical will go on sale to the general public from Jul 3.
However, those who want first dibs can either sign up for the waitlist on Ticketek Singapore's website or join the presale session offered by Esplanade. The waitlist for the former closes on Jun 28 while Esplanade's presale will kick off on Jun 30.
The original Beetlejuice movie centred around a husband and wife, played by Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis, who die and end up haunting their mansion.
In an attempt to scare away the new living residents of their home, the couple sought the help of bio-exorcist Beetlejuice (played by Michael Keaton), whose antics quickly spiralled out of control. The couple then teamed up with the new homeowners' daughter (played by Winona Ryder) to stop Beetlejuice.

China's Pop Mart, maker of the Labubu doll, says profit soars nearly 400% in first half
SHANGHAI: China's Pop Mart, which has taken the world by storm with its ugly-cute Labubu doll, reported a nearly 400 per cent first-half net profit on Tuesday (Aug 19) on high demand for the toys and a shift towards higher-margin overseas markets. Net profit of 396.5 per cent and a 204.4 per cent jump in revenues exceeded numbers flagged in an earnings preview last month, forecasting revenue growth of 200 per cent in the first half of 2025 and a recurring net profit increase of at least 350 per cent on the year. Shares in Pop Mart have risen more than 200 per cent year-to-date, making the Chinese toy company more valuable than traditional industry giants like Barbie-maker Mattel and Hello Kitty parent company Sanrio. Pop Mart often sells its collectable figurines in so-called "blind boxes" with buyers not knowing the exact design they will receive until they open the packaging. One of the major drivers of the toothy-grinned Labubu's success has been its popularity with celebrity fans, who include Lisa of K-pop group Blackpink, singer Rihanna and ex-football star David Beckham. Pop Mart is pledging to increase the supply of the dolls, which have sold out in stores around the world. Its CEO, Wang Ning, in an interview with Chinese state media last month, said sales of Labubu will surpass 10 million units per day from September this year. Pop Mart classifies Labubu under its The Monsters intellectual property (IP) characters. It said on Tuesday that The Monsters raked in 4.81 billion yuan (US$669.88 million) in the first half, accounting for 34.7 per cent of total revenue. Four other IPs earned over 1 billion yuan during the period, including Molly and Crybaby, it added. The company now has 571 stores - 40 of which it opened in the first half of this year - as well as 2,597 automated robot shops across 18 countries and regions, it added.
