& Juliet’s song list is replete with some of the highest-grade nonsense of the past three decades, from Britney’s “… Baby One More Time” to Pink’s “Fuckin’ Perfect” with a heavy gravy ladling of Backstreet Boys along the way.Īt its best, the show just does away with logic and gives you full-throated renditions of Martin’s more insistent anthems. The Playbill refers to him as “basically the Shakespeare of pop music,” and to be fair, both writers invented phrases (“My heart is like an open highway”… what?). If you’re not cognizant of him by name, you’ve absorbed his work secondhand somewhere or, at the very least, danced to it at a wedding reception. Luke, also credited as a producer of the musical, which does not sit well with the feminist packaging.) Martin is a Swedish mastermind of cascading bass lines, tectonic key changes, and incoherent lyrics.
The real stars here are the songs, all from the catalogue of Max Martin and his collaborators. The answer: barely enough! Would you believe romantic complications ensue? have a run-in with an awkward young prince named François and his swaggering father, while Anne and Will argue about how much conflict this whole tale should actually have. Once in Paris - you know they’re there because a tiny set piece resembles the Moulin Rouge and another depicts a Métro stop - Juliet & Co. We all know Juliet dies at the end of Romeo & Juliet, but & Juliet asks, What if she didn’t? What if, instead, she switched into a pair of sneakers & gallivanted away from Verona & went to Paris for a grand adventure of self-actualization & was joined by her nurse & (okay, that’s enough of that) her nonbinary friend, May? That’s the edit that Anne Hathaway - rest assured, book writer David West Read of Schitt’s Creek gets in a joke about the actress - suggests to her husband, Will Shakespeare, at the top of the show, after which she inserts herself into the action as Juliet’s other friend, April (rest assured, you also get a joke about how all these names are months).
You’ll have that ephemeral thrill of being alive on a dance floor & end up with a hangover. You may shout “Woo!” & you may feel queasy. & at others, such as when any character tries to explain any part of this show’s plot, you may feel as if the world has started to spin desperately out of control.
At times, such as when someone belts the chorus of “Since U Been Gone” at you, it is impossible not to feel intoxicated. The aggressively effervescent musical has come to Broadway, & it intends to wash you away in the blushy delights of pop feminism & hit singles & middle-school-level Shakespeare jokes. If you were to adapt the feeling of getting day-drunk on cheap rosé for the stage, you’d get & Juliet. My MF nigga.this is 100.From & Juliet at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre.
