Beetlejuice the Musical: Songs + Scenes
KamiArchVA for Beetlejuice
TENOR
Betelgeuse is a demon straight from the Netherworld. He is longing to be seen by humans again and will do whatever it takes to make his desires come to fruition. All that it would take for him to be seen would be for someone still living to say his name three times. When he hears of the recent death of two homeowners, Barbara and Adam, he feels confident that they could get someone living to say his name. His plans are sent for a loop when he meets Lydia, a strong-minded young woman, who is smarter than he anticipated. Betelgeuse is fairly raunchy and is definitely a strong personality. This gets him in trouble often throughout his journey. All in all, he is a demon, so chaos follows him wherever he goes...and that’s just how he likes it.
Please sing a snippet of The Whole "Being Dead" Thing
(Flush! A toilet flushes. Beetlejuice runs out of the bathroom, pulling his pants up. ) Aww! Did I miss it?! I really wanted to watch them die. Cool hole. Now I just gotta keep those boring bore-dos in the house. Which means, we gotta toss the rule book. (Pause, a whistle of a cartoon bomb falling is happening as the book falls) Here she comes. Right on time. (Book thuds to the ground) The rule book. I present: The Handbook for the Recently Deceased. Every dead person gets on. Free, like a Gideon Bible. Also: Useless. Like a Gideon Bible. Religion joke!
(Pretentious narrator) Chapter One: Proceed Directly to the Neitherworld. (Sinister) Now where's the fun in that?
