The Beetlejuice Musical Breathes New Life into a Cult-Classic Story

Beetlejuice may have been in the news for unwelcome reasons, but the show's recent Minneapolis stop was a thorough delight.

Full disclosure: this show is a blast. Beetlejuice is haunting the country with its tour, and last week the show graced the Twin Cities with a run at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis. I’m not usually one for musicals, but this was one show I wasn’t going to miss … again. (I had a ticket to see it on Broadway back in March 2020. Need I say more?) The musical, based on the 1988 cult-classic film,…

Wicked - 2024

The road show is still fun, the staging hasn't changed in the years in-between my first and this second time. Glinda is such a fun character and gets the best lines and songs. Elphaba appears to be a foil for her. When they sing For Good how they end their friendship is said truthfully, the words are so right. The relationship between Elphaba and Fiyero is a surprise and turns out so sweet, a true happily ever after with a twist.

I could listen to the song Popular over and over again. It's funny and the Glinda character is so goofy it works perfectly.

the story that partly inspired today’s senpai fic! but what about the theater? ;)

turns out senpai’s 5 seats were gone by the time of the fic! the theater burned on october 20th 1937 (coincidentally that’s the day of the wadlows’ move to sanford avenue!) and another blaze took it 10 days later. about a year after senpai’s passing is when the theater passed away as well. crazy stuff! :o

here’s the spot where the theater stood today:

luckily the princess theater swooped in to save the day! :D

it opened in 1908 or 1912 as a combo theater for pictures and the stage. it had a big remodeling in early 1937 and was redone in a modern art deco style, as well as the organ was taken out (rip 1915-1937 :’( )

long after senpai, the theater started to decline in popularity during the 60s and closed in 1970, being demolished in 1981 (but not before being considered to become a disco!)

this is about where it was today:

and for grins and giggles, here’s the route there from the wadlow’s house!:

it’s sort of a long boi... (but not as long as senpai!) what did the he and the sibs see there? you’ll find out very soon! ;)
