"what if Juliet didn't kill herself?"
The Capulet and Montague blood feud continues and escalates into a civil war in Verona
I stg if they make it a "juliet lives and convinces everyone to just be happy" I will punch a wall.
True!
And as a reminder for you literature peeps, here's the death-count since Romeo and Juliet meet:
Mercutio, friend of Romeo and the Montagues by extension.
Tybalt, cousin of Juliet and killed by Romeo for killing Mercutio.
Lady Montague, Romeo's mother who died of heartbreak from Romeo's banishment.
Count Paris, friend of Prince Escalus of Verona, who threatened any further breaches of the peace with death and lowered Romeo's sentence from execution to lifetime banishment. Paris was killed by Romeo in rage.
utubrGaming Lord....Some of those i totally forgot about.....this looks way to happy considering all the deaths.
Diego Garcia I saw it months ago, it doesn't end like that. It's actually really satisfying.
So Juliet just gon’ be out here living her best life...
piecesofme Sounds highly unrealistic to be honest 😆
like a queen
Yes wueen
No i've been in this musical and romeo came back to life
@@m.j6373 please don't spoil shows like that. Dick move
As an english literature major: Shakespeare could absolutely use a rewrite
Spoken like a true lit major. So much easier to read and critique than to actually create anything of value.
Lieutenant Thalia this is a terrible rewrite
If anyones gonna rewrite something, please do Taming of the Shrew. Well, if that play is worth a rewrite.
@@DJVLDN Thanks for telling me! It sounds really interesting.
Check out the new National Theatre production of it they filmed. Mild changes in script and direction, but ultimately same text. It gives it a new subtext and is quite exciting really
Can we just talk about how nice the actress of Juliet’s arms are
If you want
yes.
👬😁👬😄😁
I know there is a lot of controversy about this show but from I’ve seen it looks pretty good! Yes its a shame it’s a jukebox musical but I’m pretty sure there is one original song. Ive booked tickets to see it so I’ll edit this comment once I’ve seen it. Xx
I look forward to reading your thoughts on the show😊
Yeah! Hope you like it. I'll wait for your comment 😁
I.L theatre and can you please do a little summary ? cuz the album / recording just came out and im a lil lost on the story
I.L theatre - yeah that would be interesting
I.L theatre I’m curious as well cause considering what happens in play this looks way to happy....also was that Romeo alive? Cause he killed himself before Juliet and another thing if this is them trying to “fix the play” Why not start with the question *What if Romeo didn’t kill himself?* 😅Haha sorry it’s just a lot of this just doesn’t make sense.
Interesting idea, but did it really have to be a jukebox musical? I feel like there could’ve been more done with this.
Imagine this,:
Singing
In
Iambic
Pentameter
I love the concept but god damn I hate jukebox musicals
@@utubrGaming YES
I’m sorry, what’s a Jukebox Musical?
@@GabiHannah1 It's where musicals used previously released songs has their musical score, much like Mamma Mia :))
I went mostly out of curiosity and honestly thought it was going to be awful .... but its bloody brilliant its clever it's funny its poignant and it's a bloody good way to spend 2 and a half hours ... left smiling for ear to ear .... deserves to run and run .... just hear her roar
I was so tired when I went and I thought I would fall asleep on my seat. But I have to agree it makes you sing and smile all the way through. One of the best musicals in the west end.
Yheee that was soooo fun
I went on a school trip bc a Parent gave my school tickets for it so I was like yh sure & I was expecting it to be dull but it was amazing
Yeah, I saw it on Wednesday, and it's a new favourite.
Juilet
Just went to see it today and i absolutely LOVED IT!! I was kinda sceptical at first cause i was thinking "oh god another jukebox musical" but it was really well put together. They made the songs fit in ways i wouldnt even think of. The story and concept was reallys strong. Also for all the history and english nerds out there it has some hilarious jokes surrounding shakespeare and his writing. The feminism and the inclusivity didnt feel forced and the romance(s) was honestly one of the best ive seen in theatre. The overall aesthetic was gorgeous and not as cringey as its made out to be here. Honestly i think it was bloody brilliant and would definetly recommend
Just seen it yesterday!!!and yes!!!empowering,amazing!!Glad we went!!❤️
I want to go see this! I’ve never heard about it before, but I see that it’s coming to Broadway. Something about this show just makes me smile, it seems like all the cast is having so much fun! Your review only makes me want to see it more 😭
Definitely going to see this at some point
YES agreed i loved how they made fun of his writing. it was excellent i don’t normally see shows more than once cause of how expensive they are but i’m definitely planning on. seeing this again!!
Juilet
THIS SHOW NEEDS TO COME TO THE US!!!! From the trailer it looks soooo good!!! I'll just be waiting until the soundtrack releases!
Nikki’s Corner honestly !!! I would pay to this show 100%
I hope so too. I would go just for the music
IT IS COMING TO THE US!!!
@@h0lm3sbury WAIT WHAT??? When???
@@nikkis_corner97 they’re set to have a broadway transfer after finishing their run in toronto
extra info: they will be playing in toronto from june 22 until august 14
Honestly, I'd die for their version of "Its My Life"
it’s so good 😫✊
i KNOw right
it slaps so unbelievably hard
@@meg4322 they did not have to go so hard but I'm thrilled they did
I've been replaying that sixteen seconds of the trailer for like five minutes, help
I wonder what Shakespeare would think if he could see this 😂
Disappointed
I'm sure he would make up a whole new vocabulary to describe his disdain.
Juliet: *Lives*
Shakespeare: Yas, queen
Foul villain, ill knave! Vernacular hath turned
Into a form worse off for both culture
And wit, for tis common language is burned
Souls of poets and writers in torture!
Don't think he's really the target audience
Went to see this tonight - one of the BEST things my eyes have had the pleasure of viewing this year. Would go again!
Hey Erin - all the songs in the musical are renditions of pop songs :)
@@Ash-ii5qk More specifically, they're all renditions of pop songs written by the same person: Max Martin.
To the people complaining its a Jukebox musical, trust me, I was one of you and then I saw it and I can't imagine it with original music, the songs just fit so well and were chosen brilliantly (well except maybe Can't stop the feeling, but its the finale song so It gets a little leeway)
Honestly if you have not seen it go and see it if you can! Hands down one of the best west end shows I have seen. You may not like the idea of a jukebox musical but they fit the songs in so well that its really funny and the set it amazing. You must see
The last jukebox musical I saw was On Your Feet
Everyone is saying ‘ugh wish it wasn’t a jukebox musical’ but tbh I didn’t mind it, some songs I didn’t know but I knew most and okay I would like to see what songs they could of made but I still really really enjoyed it! Defo reccomend seeing
I went to the opening night. It is by far the BEST show I’ve ever seen! Everything about it is amazing, the actors, the set, the costumes, the music, the list could go on. I would DEFINITELY recommend this show. Keep up the great work 👍
😅😮
Just curious: What other musicals have you seen?
Went to opening night, this show is a fricking gem 💎😭
I went on the opening night too! It was absolutley worth the money! I both cried and laughed and you just feel every singel word!
Love to April, May, Julyet, the young sexy man, Lance (who defenitely wouldn't be distracted by a nurse), Frankie, Nurse, William Shakespeare and of course ALL THE EXES OF ROMEO! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Sofia Isgar YES 😂💗
Why is everyone hating?! haha! It's such an interesting concept for a musical, I get that having it be a jukebox musical is a bit of a downer but the execution of this musical is killer! They add their own spin to the music they use and it seems to work! That ending "Roar" part was amazing!
This is a jukebox musical done ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.
💗
What is a jukebox musical
@@jengagg8588 a musical that features hit songs of a popular music group or genre
Don't even question going to see this. It was better than I ever could have imagined JUST GO
all I have to say is don’t knock it until you’ve seen it. this show is amazing!!
Hi yes, one more for the "if only it wasn't jukebox" count
I guess I’m the only one in the WORLD,,,but I enjoy Jukebox musicals just as much as normal ones. I enjoy listening to songs in a new perspective under someone else’s voice. I think this show is gonna be amazing!
I’m more into original scores. But I’m open to this one
People are acting like they deliberately stole the songs XD This musical is by Max Martin, who is also the writer for all of the songs used in the musical. So technically, it's original work.
Love the idea of it, but I do not like the execution
How can you say you don’t like the execution if you haven’t seen the show? You kind of can’t. Wow.
SHUT UP
Wow! Can't wait to see it in London West End !
The costumes are gorgeous
concept: yes
jukebox musical: why
hxnnah because the songs are all written by the guy whose idea it was. Jukebox came first, concept came later
@@brandelynnefreleng7597 I’m game for the music
moulin rouge would beg to disagree with your 'why'
So I absolutely love the aesthetic, the cast is amazing, the costumes are great, the set design is fantastic, even the music sounds good, but something feels kinda off to me... From all the promo material and the character profiles for the show it really feels as if it's a feminist message first and a story second.
Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with having a feminist message. I mean, the feminism in Six is very prominent and Six is one of my favorite shows. But in Six the feminism is very natural cause it is a show about women in history who have always been done wrong by a man and are only remembered for being wives. So a show turning that around and giving a group of women the spotlight instead of them fighting over a man feels very right.
I have not seen & Juliet so I might be very wrong here, but from all the promo's the feminism feels kinda forced? Like, Romeo & Juliet is a tragic love story about forbidden romance and starcrossed lovers. I always felt as if they were equal in that, not the Romeo show. Sure, it is a story from the 1500s and Juliet is the typical meek beauty type, but the love story is still about two equals. I mean, Romeo kills himself over Juliets ´death´ (which is not a very healthy coping strategy btw). I never got the vibe that Juliet, more so than Romeo, got the short end of the stick. Romeo & Juliet is not Shakespeares most 'female unfriendly' play, for a lack of better words. If they wanted to tacklea Shakespeare story in which the female lead was really done wrong they should have adapted the Taming of the Shrew instead.
The pitch for & Juliet, as they make it sound, is basically that Juliet sees her lover die and thinks 'whoops, time to be a strong empowered woman who don't need no man!' and yeets all of her feelings for her soulmate out of the window. And that feels inappropriate.
Still, I haven't seen the show and I am still excited to see it so it can prove me wrong. Hopefully people who have seen it can tell me if the feminism is neatly and naturally incorporated into the story like in Six. Anyway, the aesthetic gives me life so that counts for something. Okay that was my rant byee
Actually since Romeo kills himself first, I feel he could use a pep talk musical more than Juliet.
Just seen it today, and I think it was very tastefully and powerfully done...I felt that the message was really beautiful and empowering but without being too forced (but maybe that's just my opening)
I haven’t seen it yet, nor have I heard much about it, but when I first heard that there was going to be a musical about the ‘what if’, I was really hoping it would be something more along the lines of, like, dealing with a loved one’s suicide. Kind of like Dear Evan Hansen, but through the POV of the people who are actually being affected. I feel like there could be so much more potential to this than just ‘feminism yay’. Then again, I know close to nothing about this musical since I can’t find a summary, so maybe it is better than how the promo portrays it.
AnniekR I agree, there doesn’t seem to be a lot of mention to Juliet dealing with Romeo’s death...I have my issues with the story but she was obviously obsessed with him and killing herself for him seems far more in line with the characterisation in the play
Tbh I thought the promos were implying that when Romeo dies Juliet becomes a lesbian
I heard last week about the Toronto tryout coming up next year. The soundtrack of my childhood with the world’s greatest love story. Sign me up when it goes on US tour
This show better come to America
😍😍😍😍😍
update it did ! i saw it and it was AMAZING
@@mp3holder94 - It did and it's still playing at Broadway's Stephen Sondheim theater (43rd street)
I so want to see this thing reach America here soon. ...if it hasn't already.
You guys are coming to the US eventually right??? I’m dying to see this
If this pandemic is over by then, the show will have its North American premiere in Toronto next February. After that, who knows? It could transfer to Broadway.
its coming to the us!
EVERYBODY! I've seen it! It's really good! You genuinely need to see the entire show to judge it! xx
I can't wait for the rest of the songs to come out! I'm in LOVE! I think I really want to hurry my visit to London to go see this musical!!
They came out 20 years ago. 😂
@@daltonrandall4348 i mean the rest of their covers, no worries, I know my music 😉
I have to say, I went to watch this last night, and oh boy how AMAZING is this. It’s so cleverly done and written. I know the songs might be a bit cheesy but they are mostly none to the public. You just can’t hold yourself and not sing them or dance along. I knew probably 90% of the music, and to be honest it’s good well written that you will focus on the lyrics and almost forget who wrote it, because it fits amazing with the story. Do yourself a favour and go and watch this! Thank me later.
You are so right. Watched the matinee show yesterday and it was the understudy Juliet/Romeo but both very good. Plus our seats were upgraded to royal circle so win win 😄
What are cheesy songs?
'm definitely not in the demographic for this musical but I loved it: great songs, powerful performances, high energy dancing, clever design and an uplifting female empowerment theme. Also, much appreciated by an oldie like me, wonderful sound quality.
Hamilton: *A N D P E G G Y*
JulietMusical: *& Juliet*
Do I sense a pattern?😉
Anyways, this seems so cool!
Holy cow. BON JOVI!!
Well, it is has peaked my curiosity. Pretty cool.
Same here
This reminds me of that fake play in Tootsie "Juliet's nurse" 😂
Went to see it last Saturday and the show was amazing. Loved the music, the dancing and the humour.
Everyone hating on this should just watch it because it’s a GREAT show!
You watch television; but you see West End and Broadway musicals.
@@grantcurry4839 what’s your point?
Loved it so much!!! What an awesome idea! 💜🤗
I love this new trend of turning things from the past into musicals!!!! And yes, I know this didn't actually happen, but still!
Saw this yesterday and it was absolutely brilliant, hilarious and proper feel good! See it while you still can!
Saw this last night in London. Absolutely amazing. Blow out performances incredible talent funny. Best musical I've ever seen.
it was amazing!! i especially loved may and françois’s relationship!!
Yasss!!!
personally love this idea and the fact it’s not original music shouldn’t take away from how amazing it looks!
exactly! why does everyone hate jukebox muxicals? i think it is amazing how people can twist songs into telling completley different stories.
This is the very best ! Shaftesbury always go with legendary musicals !
Most people don't know that all these songs were written by Max Martin.
Can someone please tell me why so many people are getting upset over the fact that is a jukebox musical? While I absolutely adore musicals, I wouldn't consider myself a really big theatre fan, having never been able to see one in person. However, I think the idea of taking pre-exisiting songs and fitting them into the plot of the musical sounds really cool to me. I know that Mamma Mia! did the same thing, but I can't really judge that one since I've never seen it, but I've heard good things about it. So, I guess I don't really understand why there is such an uproar about & Juliet being a jukebox musical.
Sooooooooooooo Good!!!! I went yesterday and it's amazing, I do recommend!!
Yay!
My friends and I went to see &Juliet this weekend and it was absolutely amazing! It was so much better than i expected and we all had such a great time. The entire casts' singing is just mind blowing- especially Juliets 💯 Highly recommend and would like to go watch it again myself to be honest.
I Love this Trailer so exitedet of it!
the aesthetic of this show looks like one of those horrible bedazzled “live, laugh, love” signs that your grandma buys for you from bed bath and beyond
preach. it’s so off putting.
ikr i don't even know where or who to look at
omg I'm calling this is way too funny 😂
no, it’s more of a sparkly, early 2000s pop extravaganza
Haters gonna hate.
This actually looks really good
GUESS WHO'S HYPED
I've seen this 3 times now and am not at all usually a fan of jukebox musicals but this one is amazing. I'm happy to answer any questions anyone might have re:plot or whatever, it isn't super clear what happens unless you've seen it
Am I the only one who actually like this? Even though it’s a jukebox musical-
Me
I didn't know how much I needed this in my life until just now 😍
My stand is this: The musical can work with it being a jukebox, being a Jukebox musical doesn't automatically make you unoriginal or lazy. Probably one of the best examples I've heard of: MOULIN ROUGE. Beautiful musical that was a jukebox, but was incredibly creative in how they used yhe music they did. It was funny at times, and then powerful amd heartfelt. As a bonus, they did have 1-2 original songs (from what I remember, I saw the musical maybe a month ago).
I love the idea of it, but uts not to say I'm not a little suspicious of skeptical. It really depends on what songs they pick and when, but I'm into it
I think lazarus is the best example of An amazing jukebox musical actually.
Just saw this today and it's awesome! Yeah, it may have been cooler with original songs but they remixed them so well! Such a unique plot! *Not super spoilery spoiler*
I kinda hope that Anne Hathaway gave Shakespeare wild ideas like this in real life but he never published them
Honestly went there recently and I loved it so much. Absolute recommend!!
This could have been a great musical but they decided to go in a jukebox route. Shame.
scorpioninpink agreed and this is coming from someone who likes jukebox musicals.
Excuse me? But this is my childhood soundtrack
The best experience of my life i had so much fun to bad i don't live in london to see this musical again
this musical is amazing!! all the songs are fitting and it's executed perfectly, going back for a round 5 soon- but tickets if you can ^^
Saw this on Tuesday at the shafstbury theatre in London. Great show and fantastic vocals!
Yaaay at last !!! Can’t wait to see this in London !!!!
Saw this recently and... everyone who is hating on it is right to do so.
The jukebox songs felt so shallow and shoehorned in and the book was very blah.
I will say this, the actress who plays Juliet was undeniably charismatic. I just wish she had more to work with
And on the other hand there's me, going in with low expectations for a silly fun jukebox musical and ending up standing ovation-ing. If you go into a jukebox musical looking for something deep as it seems you did then you're automatically not the target audience or even an audience worth trying to reach, no offense.
Oh another Romeo and Juliet remake which so amazingly recreates the play oh gosh I can't wait and also having loads of popular songs that everybody knows instead of original musical numbers god that's so why I go to the West End.
Hello high and mighty, you should probably go see it. Just came back, had relatively low expectations but ended up giving a standing ovation along with much of the crowd.
This looks so good.
aaaaaand i have to go back to london now time to get on a 14 hour plane ride haha
How nice. A great value version of moulin Rouge
honestly everyone seems to not like the idea but it’s a show like if you don’t like the idea don’t go or listen ....
i personally think a lot more could have been done with it but it still seems super good and everyone’s really putting their hardest into this . if you’re not a big fan then fine but dont complain or anything cuz it’s already in a theatre and stuff not much is gonna change now
The quality of this just makes me mad we can't actually see stage musicals professionally shot
This was brilliant. It was funny, heartwarming, camp and with songs only from Max Martin it was a pure delight. Highly recommend and this wasn’t my last time seeing it.
an amazing super show! we have seen it two times but for sure will be a next time because it s just like a perfect show, you laugh, you cry, you live, you feel the music! Can’t wait to see it again because « it’s my life » and « tell me why » not? 🥳👏💖🎼🎸💫🤩🥳🎊💖👏👏👏
We went a few days ago and it was brilliant...! 2 1/2 hours of pure fun, joy and excellent singing and performing.
'What if Juliet lived?'
You'd be rewriting one of the greatest tragedies of all time. Which can work, if there was a reason to. As far as I know, people weren't begging for this to happen.
its hardly ever good to ruin a timeless classic.
@@Persephonie22 Yep, and I love how they just handwave over the fact her death prevented war
There’s already one Romeo and Juliet twist I’m looking forward to come to life. Maybe I’ll be open to another
People weren't begging for phantom or Les Mis or any of the other brilliant adaptations on the west end. This is just another to add to the greats.
@@aidenstanley7305 Yeah, I just love how the play completely rewrites over one on the greatest tragedies in literary history. And also how in this timeline, it must mean that the war between the two houses escalates and leaves thousands dead. Considering how it was Romeo & Juliet's death that leads to peace.
The two examples you used are direct adaptations of two of the greatest plays in history, which I am sure people wanted to see. This is a fanfiction. A bastardisation.
The soundtrack is Amazing
So basically the musical within tootsie 😂
I was onboard with everything, except for the fact that it’s a jukebox musical. Not that there’s nothing inherently wrong with jukebox musicals (I like those, too), but for this, I thought it would’ve had original music, and with such an already interesting premise, the themes would’ve been so much stronger with an original score supporting it.
I appreciate it. But I grew up with the music. So I’m open to this if it comes to North America
I’m guessing a lot of inspiration has been taken from moulin rouge
I wasn’t a fan of the movie
I love this musical I haven't seen it but I really loved the current pop jukebox songs I think that every musical needs some pop jukebox songs in there that will rock the audience on their feet
“Maybe we should rewrite all your plays”
No just this one.
Please don’t make a glittery Hamlet or Macbeth.
Actually I picture a Macbeth with metal music being badass. But Hamlet...we have The Lion King for that. And as to this...you're right.
Four words: taming of the shrew
How about rewriting the tragedy"The Merchant of Venice"?
@@Mr.Inktail how about not changing anything at all?
@@lucianoalonso4389
Macbeth the Rock Opera sounds intriguing. I imagine it being like West Side Story with a setting update: instead of Medieval Scotland, it’d take place in, I don’t know, LA with their own turf wars, of course with a soundtrack of either heavy metal, or glam metal, or something.
This intrigues me
I’m about to audition for this show ! I didn’t know it was all covers (jukebox).. interesting concept
This looks so COOOOOOL
Literally closed last night. WHY is TH-cam throwing this at me like I could go to see it again?? 😭
13 .... 13 whatsonstage awards woo hoo
Can't wait till it makes Broadway 😉
Me too
Damn I want to see this
Love this
Will give it a go but the music seems a little bit cringey!
If I loved Moulin Rouge and Six on Broadway, will I like this?
(Please note this is coming from someone who hasn’t seen it and whose first exposure is this trailer) I know many people have chimed in with doubts about the jukebox concept, and while I have to agree that I believe this is an idea that would be well executed with more original music, I do enjoy the glitz of the entire thing. I can understand where people are coming from, saying it’s a bit much, though I think it all together would make a really fun time in the theater. It’s also a pretty interesting concept in general!
Heere and There I don’t know considering what actually happens in the play this just....looks way to happy. Also why not start it off with Romeo not killing himself? Wouldn’t that make more sense to “fixing” the play?
@@StarDreamsStudios Actually, very fair point. "Romeo and Juliet" is, in itself, a tragedy, isn't it? While I do still enjoy the aesthetic as a whole, I do see your point.
I’m already looking forward to this

Ugh ppl give this musical a chance, the songs are all written by the sam guy max Martin and the songs are all remixed to be more upbeat, energetic and more dramatic. At first when I was going to see the show I thought oh god I hate all the songs they're gonna sing, but the remix versions are amazing
