The Youth Are F**ked
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.
Emmy Award winner Kit Connor (“Heartstopper”) and Golden Globe Award winner Rachel Zegler (Spielberg’s “West Side Story”) star as Romeo and Juliet in Tony Award-winning director Sam Gold’s (Fun Home, An Enemy of the People) visceral and visionary production. Shakespeare’s timeless tragedy now belongs to a new generation on the edge. Music by Jack Antonoff and movement by Sonya Tayeh.
Previews begin September 26 at Circle In The Square.

Why does a preview thread need to be started six days before the first preview?
Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist.
Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino.
This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.

I guess he wanted to beat out the controlling edsoslo from posting at midnight before previews start!

Glad I’m not the only one who was wondering this.

Speak of the devil!
And I simply just copy and paste here at midnight… my introductory remark for each preview thread has usually been written (typed) in my notes by then. It’s always great to see new shows joining the Broadway boards. :)
Oh look, a bibu!

I'm a big fan of Kit Connor and Rachel Zegler, and I'm really curious to see how they tackle these iconic roles. The director and creative team are all top-notch, so I'm expecting something special. The music and movement sound like they'll be a major highlight. I'm definitely intrigued and I can't wait to see it!

It should be interesting to see how this will fare compared to Sam Gold's previous Broadway revivals of Shakespeare (King Lear and Macbeth).

Yeah every time I look at tickets I remember the reviews here for Macbeth. The guy couldn't do anything & he had Daniel Craig? I read the big piece in last weekend's NY Times & nothing about the actors came across as appealing to me.
So I will be awaiting early previews reports.

Did my heart love ‘til now?
An edgy, contemporary production — and 36th Broadway revival — of Shakespeare’s Romeo + Juliet lays its scene tomorrow (September 26) before an October 24 official opening at the Circle in the Square Theatre. Connor and Zegler are joined in the onstage company by Gabby Beans, Tommy Dorfman, Nihar Duvvuri, Solá Fádìran, Daniel Bravo Hernández, Taheen Modak, Jasai Chase Ownes, and Gían Pérez. Romeo + Juliet runs through February 16.
Who plans to head to fair Verona?
Oh look, a bibu!
