The North American national tour of Beetlejuice gets a new Lydia Deetz in Madison Mosley, officially taking over the role October 22 at the tour's stop in Fayetteville, Arkansas. The new star is being promoted from her previous role in the production, the Girl Scout and understudy Lydia. The tour currently has stops scheduled through July 2025.

Mosley joins continuing cast members Justin Collette as Beetlejuice, Will Burton as Adam, Megan McGinnis as Barbara, Jesse Sharp as Charles, and Sarah Litzsinger as Delia.

"Madison is a gifted performer," said director Alex Timbers in an earlier statement. "Her portrayal of Lydia blends remarkable strength, humor, and vulnerability, and she takes the audience on an incredible emotional ride. I am excited for audiences across North America to witness her talent as she takes on the role full-time."

The touring cast also includes Hillary Porter as Miss Argentina, Patrick Oliver Jones as Otho, Maria Sylvia Norris as Maxine Dean and Juno, Travis Mitchell as Maxie Dean, and Emilia Tagliani as Girl Scout. The company also includes Sophie Aknin, Michael Biren, Ryan Breslin, Jonathan Bryant, Marc Ginsburg, Katie Griffith, Haley Hannah, Kenway Ho Wai K. Kua, Matt Kurzyniec, Mateo Melendez, Lexie Dorsett Sharp, and CorBen Williams.

Based on the cult-favorite, Tim Burton-directed 1988 film, Beetlejuice tells the story of Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager whose life changes when she meets a recently deceased couple and Betelgeuse Beetlejuice, a demon with a thing for stripes. When Lydia calls on Beetlejuice to scare away anyone with a pulse, this double-crossing specter unleashes a (nether)world of pandemonium.

Tony winner Timbers (Moulin Rouge!) directs, with an original score by Tony nominee Eddie Perfect (King Kong) and a book by Tony nominees Scott Brown and Anthony King. Music supervision, orchestrations, and incidental music are by Kris Kukul, and choreography is by Connor Gallagher.

The creative team also includes Tony-nominated scenic designer David Korins, Tony-winning costume designer William Ivey Long, Tony-winning lighting designer Kenneth Posner, Tony-winning sound designer Peter Hylenski, Tony-nominated projection designer Peter Nigrini, puppet designer Michael Curry, special effects designer Jeremy Chernick, hair and wig designer Charles G. LaPointe, and make-up designer Joe Dulude II. Casting is by The Telsey Office.

The musical played its final performance at Broadway's Marquis Theatre January 8, 2023. Beetlejuice originally opened in 2019 at the Winter Garden Theatre, earning eight Tony nominations. The show closed during the pandemic Broadway shutdown, returning to Broadway in April 2022, taking a new home at the Marquis Theatre. Alex Brightman reprised his performance as the titular poltergeist opposite newcomer Elizabeth Teeter as Lydia.
