December 10, 2024Justice Meets Broadway: Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Historic Night in & Juliet!
The buzz around Broadway just hit a new high! The producers of “& Juliet” are rolling out the red carpet for none other than United States Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who’ll grace the stage in a walk-on role during the 8:00 PM performance on December 14 at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre. And that’s not all—audience members can stick around for an engaging talkback with the justice herself right after the show!

“& Juliet” is a vibrant reimagining of Shakespeare’s classic tale, featuring a Tony Award-nominated book by David West Read and electrifying pop hits by Max Martin. This fresh take follows Juliet as she survives and embarks on an empowering journey of self-discovery. Since its opening on November 17, 2022, the show has been a crowd-pleaser, racking up nine Tony nominations and launching a national tour in Baltimore last September.
Produced by a star-studded team including Max Martin, Tim Headington, Theresa Steele Page, Jenny Petersson, Martin Dodd, and Eva Price, “& Juliet” is a must-see for anyone craving Broadway magic!
So, why not dive into the dazzling world of Broadway? Whether it’s the electrifying performances, the stunning sets, or the unforgettable music, there’s nothing quite like experiencing a show in person.
