Check out the cast and team of & Juliet celebrating 500 performances on Broadway with "Larger Than Life" balloons, as the cast posed onstage to mark the occasion January 27. See the photos of the special milestone in the gallery below.
The Tony-nominated jukebox musical opened at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre November 17, 2023, transferring from its hit West End run. Picking up where Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet ends, when Shakespeare's wife Anne Hathaway comes to visit him in London, she suggests that the lovestruck teenager's story shouldn't end in tragedy. What follows is a rollercoaster of laugh-inducing rewrites and a heartening journey of self-discovery.
