Show Packs
Beginning in the spring of 2016, we ventured into the world of show-specific packs. We’ve offered Fun Home, Fiddler on the Roof (2015 Revival), and Dear Evan Hansen (all still available in our shop). We presented our first show-specific mini edition for The Prom, followed by our Moulin Rouge! mini edition, and we have now collaborated with another show for our next:
Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Broadway! 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. And now, the whole gang is collectible! It's show card time!
The cast and creatives of Beetlejuice are coming your way, along with the show card and lyric card:
Once again, we’ve created a mini set within the edition that features nine scenes from throughout the show –
The Whole Being Dead Thing
Ready, Set, Not Yet
Dead Mom
Say My Name
DAY-O
That Beautiful Sound
What I Know Now
Home
Creepy Dead Guy
– with a tenth (“Jump in the Line”) featured on the backs once you’ve collected all nine!
We’ve got some fun rarities for you! In this edition, you’ll find a foil-embossed Handbook for the Recently Deceased card, as well as lenticular/tilt cards featuring Big Beetlejuice and Big Sandy.
And as we do with all of our editions, some proceeds from our cards benefit a cause close to the heart of our subjects and team. The Beetlejuice family is highlighting Entertainment Community Fund (formerly named Actors Fund). So, our stars have autographed 100 cards each which have been sorted randomly into packs.
Moulin Rouge: The Musical opened on Broadway in the summer of 2019 “Enter a world of splendor and romance, of eye-popping excess, of glitz, grandeur and glory! A world where Bohemians and aristocrats rub elbows and revel in electrifying enchantment. Pop the champagne and prepare for the spectacular spectacular… Welcome to Moulin Rouge! The Musical!”
This mini edition has just 34 cards (including some rarities). Much of Squigs’ art is unique to this edition. Here is the what you can find in these packs:
The core of the edition features cast members and members of the creative team (direction, writer, music, design) as well as select scenes from the show:
When all nine scene cards are assembled in this order in three rows of three cards (the standard layout in a binder page), they make up this image:
The Prom opened on Broadway in late 2018, taking audiences by storm with its hilarity and heartfelt message of inclusiveness. “They used to be the toast of Broadway. Now their careers are toast and they’re desperate for a new stage. So when these four stars hear that trouble is brewing around a small-town Indiana prom – and the press is involved – they know that it’s time to put a spotlight on the issue… and themselves.”
This mini edition has just 36 cards (including some rare and super rare: novelties and interactive possibilities). Much of Squigs’ art is unique to this edition. Here is the what you can find in these packs:
The core of the edition features cast members and members of the creative team (direction, writers, music, design) as well as the show logo and show art:
Various scenes from the show are also featured in the core cards. The backs of the four scene cards combine to make up a fifth scene:
The selection of rare cards brings a lot of fun: A card featuring the show-within-the-show Eleanor: The Musical! with credits written by one of the show’s scribes, Chad Beguelin; lenticular (multi-image “3D” cards) featuring Emma and Alyssa, as well as a selection of protest signs; a foil card featuring the prom tiara; and a sticker set with iconic images from the show.
And for some interactive fun, two cards will secure finders a special prize. First, the cast album card has a hand-written code on the back. If you find this card, email us at the address shown with a photo of your code, and we’ll send you a CD copy of the original Broadway cast album of The Prom! Similarly, if you find a Promposal card, e-mail the unique code to the address shown, and you will get the prize listed. These prizes include apparel and other swag from the show!
The nine leads of the show have personally autographed a number of specially-designed cards that feature information about nine of the charities and initiatives that The Prom is partnering with:
We’re so excited to be collaborating with The Prom! And look for other show-specific mini editions on the horizon.
