Building on the original with contemporary themes, the post-modern play puts a unique twist on the late tragedy and is more fit for the current times.

& Juliet, one of the newest and top musicals is heading to Des Moines Civic Center, Des Moines in the coming May on Tuesday 6th May 2025. Taking inspiration from very powerful source material, Des Moines Civic Center is ready for the pressure of having the production of the classic tale of Romeo & Juliet. Having first-class advanced gear that can surely provide a marvelous visual musical, theatergoers are in for a treat with not just a comfortable viewing but also a flawless technical production of ‘& Juliet’.
William Shakespeare's love story has ultimately been famous as one of the saddest tales in several decades, with Romeo and Juliet’s zealous infatuation for one another leading to their death by their own hands. Making use of William Shakespeare and Anne Hathaway as tools in the musical itself however, the worldwide and modern play, & Juliet, tweaks the previous story by allowing Juliet to live through the ending of Romeo's suicide and focusing on her own coming-of-age story. Choosing to escape Verona with her equally-determined friends, the cast is launched into a bigger world beyond what the group of friends were accustomed to after they arrive in Paris.
Setting itself apart from Shakespeare’s classic, '& Juliet' also applies modernized implementation that appeals to a younger audience. To present its message across to the theatergoers, the musical promotes a slew of songs from pop music’s best hitmaker, Max Martin. The Swedish producer earlier on had a goal of immortalizing his songs through theater as well, which prompted the musical being created and subsequently premiering in the year of 2019. Max Martin was very liberal in the renditions of his hits to the play, saying that he “wanted every song to feel like it was written for the musical, and to make theatergoers experience that even if his songs are performed differently, you would enjoy his music just as much.” The existing play now has the tracks from global artists namely Celine Dion, Britney Spears, Adam Lambert, and NSYNC, among others. Due to its song choices, the musical enabled a new way to appeal to a diverse fanbase to West End.
Taking off from its magnificent seasons from West End, seats to the reimagined tale of Juliet are presently available and can be acquired by accessing the links that can be seen above this page.
