With this new program, students have an opportunity to learn and experience first hand, the behind the scenes magic of a show. Working with a costume, set designer and director, students will analyze a script and then generate ideas to support the artistic vision of Beetlejuice Jr which is being presented as our Summer Musical Acadamy production. Students will then work to realize their ideas and incorporate them into the show.  This program includes prop, costume and set work.  Enrolment is limited to six placements to ensure students receive one on one mentoring.

Students will be part of the production of Beetlejuice Jr and should be available for the performances July 19th and 20th.

Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetle…You don’t have to say it three times to get in on all the fun in this zany musical adaptation as the ghost-with-the-most comes to life in this original musical based on Tim Burton’s wonderfully frantic film. Beetlejuice Jr tells the story of Lydia Deetz, an unusual teen obsessed with the whole “being dead thing”. A recently deceased couple and a demon with a thing for stripes, haunt Lydia’s new house. When Lydia calls on Beetlejuice to scare away the humans in her world, he comes up with a plan involving haunted hijinks and amazing music!
