What if Romeo & Juliet ended differently? That's the question &Julia puts forward, giving the leading lady of tragic romance a brand new lease on life and a future beyond her previous untimely demise. With an inspired band of creatives at the helm and a jukebox of pop anthems that you'll hum for weeks after, &Julia is a delightfully fresh take on a classic tale.

The Story

Juliet and Romeo, star-crossed lovers from opposing families, desperately wish to be together even at the greatest cost. When the moment comes, however, we wonder - what if Juliet makes a different choice? This Juliet does, and instead of ending her life over Romeo, she chooses herself, reshaping her destiny and embarking on a new adventure beyond what the greatest playwright of all time ever planned for her.
