"Paytas will be appearing in Beetlejuicefrom November 4 to November 23. Paytas is playing Maxine Dean, one of the party guests in the big, spooky dinner party. Maxine is the wife of Maxie Dean, Charles Deetz's boss who is trying to turn the neighborhood into a gated community. The actor playing Maxine usually also plays Juno, Beetlejuice's mother. While Paytas is embodying Maxine, Sharone Sayegh will continue to play Juno in Act II."
"This is a comeback story for the Tim Burton-inspired musical, which is making its third appearance on Broadway. And you know what happens when you say that guy's name three times. Good luck getting rid of that show now. Now that's she's a Broadway regular (her one-night-only charity show counts; Ben Platt was there), when is Trisha Paytas going to play Mary Todd Lincoln?"
Trisha Paytas will appear in the Beetlejuice musical on Broadway from November 4 to November 23 as Maxine Dean, a party guest and wife of Maxie Dean. The Maxine role is normally doubled with Juno, Beetlejuice's mother; Sharone Sayegh will continue to perform Juno in Act II while Paytas plays Maxine. The Tim Burton–inspired musical returns to Broadway for a third run. Paytas previously performed a one-night charity show attended by Ben Platt. Speculation has begun about Paytas potentially playing Mary Todd Lincoln in a future production, while Jane Krakowski prepares to star opposite Cheyenne Jackson.
