"The action unfolds in Shakespeare’s era, but its heart and head are all about today...As in any jukebox musical, some tunes are wedged in, but others fit surprisingly well...Theatregoers out for a silly good time likely won’t care as they hum along with '& Juliet'."

"The real stars here are the songs, all from the catalogue of Max Martin and his collaborators...At its best, the show just does away with logic and gives you full-throated renditions of Martin’s more insistent anthems."

"It’s not that '& Juliet' is unenjoyable – it isn’t. Somewhere beneath the bombast and repetition and overwrought-from-minute-one approach is a sweet(ish) and smart(ish) tale that gives voice to the marginalized."
