& Juliet on Broadway Tickets

The larger-than-life Broadway musical & Juliet reimagines Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet and sets the timeless classic to pop anthems. Shakespeare’s wife Anne Hathaway takes the quill and rewrites the star-crossed lovers' tragedy, creating a vibrant version that envisions a different ending for the tragic heroine — nary a dagger in sight. This flipped script challenges conventions, empowers Juliet, and captivates audiences. New York Theatre Guide calls the musical a “cheeky and eager-to-entertain jukebox musical bursting with chart-toppers” and “zippy energy.”

The catchy song catalog features Max Martin hits made famous by Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, Katy Perry, Kelly Clarkson, Celine Dion, P!nk, and more. The show creatively weaves earworms such as “Since U Been Gone,” “Roar,” and “I Want It That Way” into Juliet’s journey of self-discovery and love. To boot, the musical’s witty book is penned by David West Read, a writer behind the Emmy-winning series Schitt’s Creek.
