The musical & Juliet will celebrate one year on Broadway at the Sondheim Theatre with a week of events November 14-17, including the Broadway production’s first sing-along on November 16.
During the Broadway sing-along performance, audience members will be allowed (and encouraged) to belt out their favorite Max Martin tunes along with the cast. Following the performance there will be a post-show discussion onstage with members of the cast and creative team, led by a special guest.
The week-long celebration will also include a pop-up fan event on November 14, a first anniversary celebratory curtain call on November 17, and a favorite fan sweepstakes from now until November 1.
& Juliet imagines what would happen next in Romeo and Juliet if Juliet hadn’t ended her life. The musical uses pop songs by Max Martin and his collaborators, including “Since U Been Gone,” “Baby One More Time,” “Larger Than Life,” and more.
