Miriam-Teak Lee, David Bedella and Oliver Tompsett introduce new musical & Juliet
Directed by Luke Sheppard (In the Heights) the show imagines what would happen if Shakespeare's Juliet rebelled against her story and didn't die at the end of the play, carving out a life for herself instead. The show features tunes from the massive catalogue of Max Martin music, including Adele, Katy Perry, The Weeknd and Backstreet Boys.
The cast is led by Miriam Teak-Lee as Juliet alongside Oliver Tompsett, David Bedella, Cassidy Janson, Arun Blair-Mangat, Melanie La Barrie, Jordan Luke Gage and Tim Mahendran.
With a book by David West Read, Jennifer Weber is choreographing the show, which has set design from Soutra Gilmour, costume design by Paloma Young, musical supervision, orchestration and arrangement by Bill Sherman, lighting by Howard Hudson, sound by Gareth Owen, musical direction and additional arragements by Dominic Fallacaro and casting by Stuart Burt.
& Juliet opens for a limited run in Manchester in September, before opening in London in November.
