REVIEWS

The Haunted Mansion vibe is on full blast at the Winter Garden, where spooky-carnival pre-show music plays while chartreuse searchlights semi-periodically blind you on your way to your seat and theater staff hawk “It’s showtime!” T-shirts and booze in recognizably striped sippy cups. My usher was sporting a neon-green manicure complete with black-and-white accent nails on each ring finger. (That’s commitment.) Beetlejuice, the rowdy, raunchy musical adapted from Tim Burton’s 1988 horror-comedy, openly embraces the theme park-y aspects of an enterprise like the one it’s engaged in. True to its source material, it’s loud, it’s cheeky, and it’s all about excess. It’s also — thanks in large part to Alex Brightman’s spot-on performance as the incorrigible titular ghoul — a pretty fun time. CONTINUE READING THE VULTURE REVIEW

The musical’s book, by Scott Brown (a former theater critic, perhaps proving there is indeed life after death) and Anthony King, is clever and rich in sardonic wit, with zippy one-liners detonating like a string of firecrackers almost throughout. The musical is considerably funnier than the movie. (Like many new musicals, “Beetlejuice” is lightly larded with nifty in-jokes referencing classic ones: “Hello, Dolly!” and “Brigadoon” and “Fiddler on the Roof.”) CONTINUE READING THE BROADWAY NEWS REVIEW

The retooling done since its out-of-town tryout in D.C. — along with a host of others plot twists and character tweaks — gives the latest film-to-musical adaptation fresh snap, surprises and (gasp!) even heart. Sure, the narrative becomes a bit of a cluster-muck in the second act — but mostly it’s just screamingly good fun. CONTINUE READING THE VARIETY REVIEW
