This recording breaking musical gives audiences the ever-unending question of “what if?” If you’ve seen Romeo and Juliet, you were probably stunned by their romance but heartbroken by its immensely tragic ending. However, on this roaring new jukebox epic, things lighten up a bit as writers totally change the heart wrenching ending into a young woman’s coming of age opportunity! Instead of killing herself like in the old story, Juliet decided to continue living after finding her love Romeo dead. Watch this young woman go through new challenges, find new relationships, and learn that there’s more to life than falling stupidly in love. 

Watch out for phenomenal titles, such as Britney Spear’s “Baby One More Time,” N Sync’s “Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely,” Backstreet Boy’s “I Want It That Way,” Katy Perry’s “I Kissed a Girl,” and Kelly Clarkson’s “Since You’ve Been Gone,” among others. These amazing number 1 pop hits have pretty much made the late ‘90s and to 2000s a great time to be alive and & Juliet will show exactly why choosing life is so much more fun!
