THE GHOST-WITH-THE-MOST Returns on NOVEMBER 3-8, 2026 with Memorial Hermann Broadway at the Hobby Center

Memorial Hermann Broadway at the Hobby Center is headed to Houston for the North American Tour of BEETLEJUICE, the edgy and irreverent Broadway smash hit musical comedy.

Back by popular demand, BEETLEJUICE will play a limited one-week Houston engagement at the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts, November 3–8, 2026 as part of the Memorial Hermann Broadway at the Hobby Center 2026-2027 Season. Based on Tim Burton’s dearly beloved film, this hilarious musical tells the story of Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager whose whole life changes when she meets a recently deceased couple and a demon with a thing for stripes. 

BEETLEJUICE first opened at Broadway’s Winter Garden Theatre on Thursday, April 25, 2019 and won the Drama Desk Award and Outer Critics Circle Award for David Korins’ scenic design and was nominated for eight Tony Awards including Best New Musical. BEETLEJUICE reopened at the Marquis Theatre in 2022 – following the COVID-19 shutdown – playing 679 combined performances.

The first national US tour opened in December 2022, playing 88 cities with a final 3-peat Broadway resurrection at the Palace Theatre, where it played from October 8, 2025, through January 3, 2026. BEETLEJUICE has played internationally in Tokyo, Seoul, Melbourne, Abu Dhabi, and will make its London debut on the West End at the Prince Edward Theatre beginning in May 2026.

BEETLEJUICE is based on the 1988 Academy Award®-winning Geffen Company motion picture presented by Warner Bros. and directed by Tim Burton. The smash hit comedy starred Michael Keaton, Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Catherine O’Hara and Winona Ryder with story by Michael McDowell and Larry Wilson.
