Alex Brightman Chats About "Beetlejuice the Musical"
Рет қаралды 123,252
Күн бұрынBased on the 1988 Warner Bros. motion picture, "Beetlejuice the Musical" tells the story of Lydia Deetz, an unusual teenager obsessed with the whole "being dead thing." Lucky for Lydia, her new house is haunted by a recently deceased couple and a degenerate demon who happens to have a thing for stripes. When Lydia calls on this ghost-with-the-most to scare away her insufferable parents, Beetlejuice (Alex Brightman, "School of Rock") comes up with the perfect plan, which involves exorcism, arranged marriages and an adorable girl scout who gets scared out of her wits.

Yeah, he actually had this rare thing with how his vocal chords or whatever were made, so he could do the BJ voice. He says it on an interview. Like, for other people it would be really hard and scratchy for anybody to do the voice for that long, but for Alex, he can sing and do anything doing the BJ voice and it doesn’t hurt at all. Like, it's just like speaking for him.

@leolion3323 4 жыл бұрын
I was Caliban in my schools rendition of The Tempest, I was so nervous yet excited and loved every second of playing him. I think I’m just compelled by strange and unusual (and evil) characters because I myself am strange and unusual. Like, my recent favourite characters in musicals have been the SQUIP and Beetlejuice. At the play, we had chosen that Caliban got to travel back with Prospero, but the very last time we were going to do it I came with the suggestion that Caliban could be left behind, that he didn’t get forgiven. I didn’t practice nearly as much as wished I had right before going out there. I was very anxious but everything went really well! And Caliban got a whole lot of “Awww”’s. “Prospero! I’ve got everything packed and I think we’re ready to go! ...Prospero? Hey? Umm, Where is everybody? Prospero??”

I think the audience might not have a mic or they just don’t want to put that kind of emphasis on them besides the individual questions. You can clearly hear someone engaging with him towards the beginning, so it’s not like they’re uninterested. We’re just so used to laugh tracks and audiences being extremely loud. They typically tend to make things seem louder in shows like these.

I would sing my heart out every day playing karaoke songs from KZfaq, and that is how I think my love and talent of singing came about. For the longest time I thought a lot of people did that! In a grand scale, there are a lot who did, but many who did other things like Alex!

I saw this about two months ago as my first broadway show ever, and I had such an adoration for Beetlejuice the movie alone, and such an adoration for all things Broadway, and to have them combined for a first time experience was beyond amazing. Can’t thank the entire cast and crew enough for that (as well as both respective Alex’s). Only regret from it- can’t really afford to go see the show fifty more times which I’ve wanted since it ended.

see alex’s reasoning behind why he can do the voice is the reason i can’t imagine anyone else playing beetlejuice on your (hopefully) next year. obviously since he has the special ability to do stuff w his chords he’s able to do it healthily but for practically anyone else they’d have to either sacrifice his voice or sacrifice the performance.
