& Juliet – Musical at Ohio Theatre

Coming to Ohio on Wednesday 19th February 2025, Columbus is now welcoming the better half of Romeo showcased in creative scriptwriting, the play from Broadway, & Juliet, in the district’s best theater venue for show business, Ohio Theatre. Utilizing state-of-the-art hardware and amazing technical capacity, Ohio Theatre is surely as modern as the musical that is soon to be produced within its walls.

& Juliet, being one of the newest additions to theater and premiering not more than a decade ago, highlights all of the potential that contemporary staged plays can achieve. Its narrative, which revolves around Juliet overcoming the expectations set by others of what manner a girl is required to live her life is a huge contrast from the story we have ingrained from Romeo and Juliet; in the course of her story unfolding, Juliet and her friends decides on a deliberate choice to live their own lives, and independently at that.

Shakespeare’s late play expectedly highlights love as the story's central theme, especially both the benefits and consequences of passionate relationships. The reinvention of Juliet’s history in ‘& Juliet’ though is a showcase of a woman's strength and taking control of your own fate, while still putting attention on the choices that you make. The two differing concepts which arise from plays that were written in two absolutely different time periods show at what level theater and its narratives have evolved from the past decades.

The musical is easily able to show its audience these two varying perspectives through Shakespeare himself and his wife, who at various scenes during the course of the jukebox musical keep suggesting their own versions of what should transpire for the female cast of characters. Those scenes mixed with the other segments of Juliet's coming-of-age story demonstrate how the play is not just riveting, but also quite instructive as it connects the differences in messaging which is apparent in both the classic Romeo & Juliet and the present-day ’& Juliet’.

Whether an enthusiast of the original Shakesperean play or a brand new theater buff, ‘& Juliet’ should be on top of the list for any theatergoer. The unforgettable show shows the best way to use an innovative angle to make a forgotten tale and its cast of characters much more delightful for viewers of any age.
