Launching in the summer of 2024, the internationally celebrated musical & Juliet is set to grace stages across the UK, commencing its grand tour on 8 July at Manchester’s Opera House.
Following its remarkable success at London’s prestigious West End Shaftesbury Theatre (2019-2023) and its ongoing Broadway engagement at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre, the show is poised to dazzle audiences at a myriad of UK venues. Fans can eagerly anticipate casting announcements in the coming weeks.
Directed by Luke Sheppard, & Juliet reimagines a timeless tale by posing an intriguing question: What if Juliet chose a different path, a life without Romeo? With a pulsating pop score peppered with iconic hits by Max Martin, including chart-toppers such as Britney Spears’ “…Baby One More Time” and Katy Perry’s “Roar”, the musical is nothing short of a sonic extravaganza.
The accomplished ensemble behind the scenes includes choreography by Jennifer Weber, set designs by Soutra Gilmour, costumes by Paloma Young, and musical direction by Dominic Fallacaro. The meticulous production elements extend to sound, lighting, and visual effects, helmed by experts in their respective fields.
Having clinched numerous accolades, including WhatsOnStage and Olivier Awards, & Juliet has solidified its status as a global sensation. Awaiting fans in the US can mark their calendars for September 2024, tracing its legacy back to the pre-Broadway premiere in Toronto in 2022 and successful stints in Melbourne and Singapore.
The 2024 UK leg includes notable performances in Manchester, Blackpool, Norwich, Glasgow, and several other cities, spanning into 2025 with performances in Bristol, Wimbledon, Aberdeen, and more.
Tickets will be available for purchase starting 1 November. Further dates and venue announcements are anticipated soon. This tour promises a theatrical experience of unparalleled grandeur—truly ‘larger than life’. Secure your seats and be part of this monumental journey with & Juliet.
