Arriving in Minnesota on Tuesday 13th May 2025, Minneapolis is having a production of the jukebox musical with unique storytelling, the show from West End, & Juliet, in the district’s ultimate stage location for the dramatic arts, Orpheum Theatre. Boasting the best possible equipment and brilliant technical capacity, Orpheum Theatre is just as fresh as the play that is produced on its stage.
The musical, being one of the newest additions to theater and having its first showing less than a decade ago, is a pioneer of the possibilities that contemporary dramatic arts has to offer. The play's narrative, which centers around Juliet overcoming the dictated societal norm of how a woman should live her life is a stark change from the plot we have ingrained from Romeo and Juliet; instead of her story ending in tragedy, Juliet and her friends takes on a free choice to live their own lives, and independently at that.
Shakespeare’s late Romeo & Juliet ultimately focuses on love as the plot's dominant theme, showing both the benefits and consequences of intense love. The reinvention of Juliet’s life in ‘& Juliet’ on the other hand is a showcase of a woman's strength and living life on your own terms, while placing emphasis on the choices which you make. The two varying concepts which arise from plays that were produced in two totally disparate decades manifest at what level stagecraft and the stage's performances have improved in the past times.
The musical is able to present to its audience the changes between the two plays by using the characters of William Shakespeare and his wife, who at several scenes during the course of the jukebox musical rewrite the play based on their opinions and what they feel should happen to Juliet and her friends. Those scenes interspersed with the actual sequences of Juliet's escape to Paris are said to be not just amusing, but also outright instructive as the musical links the generational gap that is present in both the previous Shakespearean play and the present-day musical.
Whether a fan of the classic Romeo & Juliet or a brand new theater buff, this play should be on top of the list for any audience member. The impressive show shows the best way to use an innovative angle to make a classic story and its individuals much more delightful for theatergoers of any generation.
