& Juliet

“& Juliet” is a Broadway jukebox musical that rewrites Shakespeare’s tragedy as a debate over authorship and outcomes, with Anne Hathaway stepping into the story to argue for Juliet’s continued life. The plot follows Juliet to Paris, where new friendships and romances test what “a happy ending” can mean when it is being drafted in real time. Built around hit songs by Max Martin, it places late-1990s and 2000s pop in conversation with classic theatre craft. In New York, its arrival at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre reflects Broadway’s ongoing turn toward revisionist classics shaped by contemporary music.
