JUMP Encore to Present BEETLEJUICE JR. Beginning June 13

Jump Encore! invites audiences to take a trip to the Netherworld with its high-energy production of Beetlejuice Jr., opening Friday, June 13 at 7:00 PM to a sold-out house! Additional performances will be held Saturday, June 14 at 11:00 AM, 2:00 PM, and 6:00 PM.

Based on the Broadway musical and Tim Burton’s beloved cult classic, Beetlejuice Jr. is a spooky, spectacularly fun show — all mounted in just two fast-paced weeks of rehearsal.

Leading the cast is Joey Tricarico as Beetlejuice and Sydney Devriendt as Lydia Deetz. The talented featured cast also includes Julianna Lugo as Delia, Evan Lian as Charles Deetz, Larah Diaz as Miss Argentina, and Emmie Canada as Girl Scout, Sky. The cast is rounded out by an ensemble of 30 talented Jump Encore students.

The production is Directed and Choreographed by Jessica Lyndsie Babcock, with Co-Director and Head of Jump Encore, Kristina Kennedy Babcock. Music direction is provided by Heather Weiskerger. Production Assistants Liz DeCicco and Mike Lynch have helped bring the world of Beetlejuice Jr. to life.

Just last June, Jump Encore! Staged the area premiere of Six: Teen Edition. This summer, Jump Encore! continues that momentum by taking on another first: the area premiere of Disney’s brand-new Dare to Dream musical — a new show from Disney Theatrical Group. The production will be staged as part of Jump Encore’s two-week summer musical theatre intensive, running July 21st through August 2nd, giving local performers the chance to bring this fresh title to life before anyone else in the area.

Tickets for the June 14th performances are available now, but selling fast.
