Juliet’s new story bursts to life through a playlist of pop anthems as iconic as her name, including Britney Spears’…Baby One More Time, Katy Perry’s Roar and chart-toppers Since U Been Gone, It’sMy Life, I Want It That Way, and Can’t Stop the Feeling!—all from Max Martin, pop music’s number one hitmaker, and his collaborators.
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 is at Leeds Grand Theatre from Monday 18 November to Saturday 30 November 2024.
