An actress famous for her parts in the TV dramas Emmerdale and Casualty will be starring in the musical version of Tim Burton’s classic 1988 film, Beetlejuice.
Chelsea Halfpenny, known for her roles as Amy Wyatt in Emmerdale and Alicia Munroe in Casualty, will star in a Broadway show coming to London’s West End this spring. She’ll be playing Barbara Maitland, a role previously made famous by Geena Davis in the movie version.
Featuring David Fynn and Tom Xander as Beetlejuice, and David Hunter as Adam, Barbara’s husband, Beetlejuice the Musical begins performances at the Prince Edward Theatre on May 20th.
In the beloved movie, the Maitlands die in a car crash at the beginning and then become ghosts who haunt their home. They eventually become friends with Lydia Deetz, the daughter of the new owners.
Hannah Nordberg, known for her role in Euphoria, will be playing the part of the teenage daughter who loves all things gothic – a role originally portrayed by Winona Ryder in the film.
