Do you like the strange and unusual? Then buckle up, because the juice is loose! The Australian premiere of Beetlejuice the Musical is about to open in Melbourne, with the musical adaptation of Tim Burton's kooky cult classic – starring the unnerving, green-haired and striped-suit wearing ghost – transforming the Regent Theatre into a world of footballer zombies, exorcisms and much more weirdness.
New York has Broadway, London has the West End, and here in Melbourne, it's all about the East End.
We're an all-singing, all-dancing city which means we're spoiled for choice when it comes to the musicals taking centre stage in the historic East End Theatre District in the CBD.
From glitzy theatrical numbers and singalong musicals to smaller-scale productions, Melbourne is an absolute haven when it comes to all things razzle-dazzle.
