Even if you don’t know who Max Martin is, we guarantee you’ve heard the songs he’s co-written and produced — Justin Timberlake’s “Can’t Stop the Feeling,” Britney Spears' “…Baby One More Time,” and Taylor Swift’s “Shake it Off,” among them. His back catalog of hits is the driving force behind this 2019 jukebox musical that imagines what would have happened if Juliet hadn’t died for her love of Romeo. The lovers, un-star-crossed, turn out to experience many of the same romantic problems elucidated by Martin’s long string of hits. It’s all good fun. Performances of &Juliet are at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 26-27, 1 and 7:30 p.m. Nov. 29, 2 and 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 30 and 1 and 6:30 p.m. on Dec. 1.

Featuring songs by the legendary Grammy-winning songwriter/producer Max Martin, a book by the Emmy-winning writer from “Schitt’s Creek,” David West Read, direction by Luke Sheppard and choreography by Emmy-Award winner Jennifer Weber, & Juliet opened on Broadway in November 2022, where it continues playing to sold-out crowds and breaking box office records.
Juliet’s new story bursts to life through a playlist of pop anthems as iconic as her name, including "Since U Been Gone‚" "Roar," "Baby One More Time," "Larger Than Life‚" "That’s The Way It Is" and "Can't Stop the Feeling!"—all from the genius songwriter/producer behind more #1 hits than any other artist this century— Max Martin. Break free of the balcony scene and get into this romantic comedy that proves there’s life after Romeo. The only thing tragic would be missing it.

& Juliet has now been performed on four continents since its World Premiere in September 2019. It began at the Manchester Opera House in England, before moving to London’s West End, where it won three Olivier Awards, and 6 WhatsOnStage Awards before playing its final performance at the Shaftesbury Theatre in March 2023. The show had its North American premiere in July 2022 in Toronto, where it broke box office records and played to standing-room-only audiences, before heading to Broadway, where it again broke box office records and plays nightly to sold-out crowds. An Australian production of & Juliet premiered in February 2023 at Melbourne’s Regent Theatre and will soon launch a UK Tour (July 2024) and German production (October 2024). The German production marks the show’s first production with a book translated into a different language and will also be the sixth country to welcome & Juliet in less than five years.
