Review: BEETLEJUICE at National Theatre
by David Friscic - Jul 12, 2026

The current touring production of Beetlejuice, now playing at the National Theatre, is an odd theatrical piece –in that it is really more of an ostensible cult musical event for the generations in their twenties, thirties, and early forties. This in itself is perfectly fine, but I must admit that this musical had none of the edgy cult musical appeal of such marvelously innovative and witty cult musicals as The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Little Shop of Horrors. There should be some measure of real solid wit and interesting songs in even the most beloved generational cult musicals.
