Touring Broadway hit & Juliet \u2014 a musical imagining of Ms. Capulet\u2019s life sans one troublesome Romeo \u2014 comes to Orlando for a nearly weeklong run, featuring a very familiar local-fave face.<\/p>\n

Verily, none other than Joey Fatone of *NSync and Fat One\u2019s Hot Dogs fame joins the production to reprise the role of \u2026 Lance (they take liberties!) for the duration. <\/p>\n

& Juliet combines the works of the two immortal bards, Max Martin and William Shakespeare \u2014 with a hand from book writer David West Read (of Schitt\u2019s Creek infamy) \u2014 for a campy romp through Martin\u2019s pop hits welded to Shakespeare\u2019s texts, all reimagined as a bit of a self-aware rom-com. Is this peak post-post-postmodernism? Likely. <\/p>\n

Tuesday-Sunday, Jan. 6-11, Walt Disney Theater, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S. Magnolia Ave., drphillipscenter.org<\/a>, $62-$221. <\/p>\n
