& Juliet Tickets
Belk Theatre at Blumenthal Performing Arts Center | Charlotte, North Carolina
& Juliet is a whimsical take on Shakespeare’s classic. Juliet ditches the classic ending and does things her own way. You honestly must be there to understand it. There's no dreary balcony scene here, but only new thinking. That is the brilliance of this masterpiece. Fans have been waiting a very long time for something this awesome and naturally tickets will be very limited but right here, on this page, you can get yours before someone else gets their hand them. It will be live at Belk Theatre at Blumenthal Performing Arts Center on Thursday 24th October 2024.
Set side by side with the previous storyline of Shakespeare's creation which debuted live roughly four centuries ago, viewers have discerned the many modifications that were made to ‘& Juliet’, a significantly newer show based on the same lead character. Shakespeare’s original drama centers around the tragedy that takes place because of rash decision-making and the insatiable passion of two lovers, which results in the suicide of both Romeo and Juliet. On the other hand, ‘& Juliet’ looks beyond the said tragedy and instead embraces a more positive outlook by embracing on the infinite possibilities of life, even after such painful experiences.
This messaging is evident in the new showl’s cast of characters, Juliet, and her circle of friends, who journey to Paris and discover their identities not just as individuals, but as powerful women. ‘& Juliet’ is a good feminist flip through the eyes of Shakespeare’s wife, Anne Hathaway, who takes the reigns of her husband’s tale and changes the ending of his famous classic. She gives both old characters from the original story a rare moment to shine, while bringing in new and equally capable women to the stage. Going off-script from Romeo & Juliet, the play is able to incorporate popular culture, specifically songs from recent generations, that encapsulate the growing awareness and self-discovery of each of the women throughout the production. Even the attire worn by the musical’s cast give a nod to Romeo & Juliet, while showing the contrast between the ongoing musical and the previous classic by pairing Elizabethan dresses and iconography with today’s dress styles. Each aspect of the production was carefully thought-out to promote empowerment and "being able to write your own story".
This October’s limited season of ‘& Juliet’ sees it brought to North Carolina, where Charlotte's Belk Theatre at Blumenthal Performing Arts Center is proud to be hosting this up-and-coming jukebox musical on Thursday 24th October 2024.
