The actress played Delia Deetz in the 1988 movie and sported a striped gown that is pretty similar to what she wore in the film.

More Beetlejuice news

We were given our first sneak peek at Beetlejuice: The Musical late last year as it premiered at the National Theatre in Washington D.C. for a pre-Broadway run. Now, we have the first official teaser trailer as well as two songs!

If you’re still on the fence about snagging those Broadway tickets, maybe this will persuade you to grab those ASAP.

Back in October, Vanity Fair shared an exclusive photo from the set of the production, which stars Tony-nominated Alex Brightman (School Of Rock), as Beetlejuice and Sophia Anne Caruso (Lazarus) as Lydia.

Alex Timbers (Moulin Rouge!, Peter And The Starcatcher) is directing the show, which features a score by Eddie Perfect (King Kong) and a book by Scott Brown and Anthony King (Broad City).
