Some of the writers on Fangirlish live in New York City and need to spend more time watching Broadway shows. They don’t, but this may be the show that gets them to go. Kit Connor and Rachel Zegler are starring in the Broadway production of Romeo + Juliet.
We have to admit that Kit Connor and Rachel Zegler are a big draw. The limited run also features the music done by Jack Antonoff. Seriously, you know that this is going to be good.
Here’s the official tagline: “The youth are f**cked. Left to their own devices in their parents’ world of violent ends, an impulsive pair of star-crossed lovers hurtle towards their inescapable fate. The intoxicating high of passion quickly descends into a brutal chaos that can only end one way.”
A teaser was released and we’re dying over the modern take on the famous play from William Shakepeare.
Romeo+Juliet is set for the Broadway stage this fall, with previews beginning on September 26. Tickets are available on romeoandjulietnyc.com. We have no doubt that this is going to be the hottest ticket in town.
